HOW TO CLEAN SILVER ORNAMENTS -

No matter how well you care for your silver jewellery, they naturally tarnish over time. Here are seven different methods you can follow to clean silver ornaments at home.

1. Baking soda and aluminum foil

This is one of the popular and easy ways to clean silver jewellery. Now, if your silver jewellery turns yellow or black you can reverse the effect by using this very simple method. You don't need to buy any expensive product, you can do it with items you already have at home. In the toughest of tarnish situations this low cost and easy method will clean your jewellery within 30 seconds - 3 minutes (depending on the state of your silver).

First, bring the water to a boil. (Keep in mind that it should be enough water to reach the top of the bowl). Next, take your bowl/vessel and line it with aluminum foil, keeping the shiny side up. After that, add 1 tablespoon of baking soda with each cup of water into the bowl and the solution will bubble.

Now, instantly place the silver jewellery in the dish, ensure that the jewellery is touching the aluminum foil - this is an essential part of the process for the chemical reaction to occur. Leave in the solution for 2-5 minutes.

In case, if the level of tarnishing is really bad then you can leave it in up to 10 minutes. At last, remove the jewellery safely; rinse under cool water and clean it with the dry cleaning cloth. That's it! Be prepared to be amazed!

2. Lemon and Salt bath

This method is mostly used to clean the silver idols and puja utensils on a daily basis. To use this method you just need to squeeze a lemon into a bowl with 3 tablespoons of salt and hot water and placed the tarnished bracelet to rest in there for 5 minutes. Once done, remove and rub with a soft cloth. Doing so will help you to remove the tarnish.
