id=\"h-why-does-silver-tarnish\">Why Does Silver Tarnish?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before diving into cleaning methods, it\u2019s helpful to understand why silver tarnishes. Silver jewellery tarnishes when it reacts with sulfur-containing substances in the air, forming a dark, sometimes greenish layer. Factors like exposure to water, perfumes, lotions, and even the natural oils from our skin can accelerate this process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tarnish doesn\u2019t damage silver permanently but it can make the metal look dull. Regular cleaning helps remove this layer, restoring the jewellery\u2019s original shine and brilliance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-method-1-mild-dish-soap-and-warm-water-for-light-tarnish\">Method 1: <strong>Mild Dish Soap and Warm Water<\/strong> (for Light Tarnish)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-you-ll-need\"><strong>What You\u2019ll Need:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Mild dish soap<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Warm water<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A soft-bristle toothbrush or a soft cloth<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"477\" src=\"https:\/\/static.antiquejewellerycompany.com\/2024\/11\/cleaning-silver-jewellery.jpg\" alt=\"Cleaning silver jewellery\" class=\"wp-image-964268\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-steps\"><strong>Steps:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Mix a few drops of mild dish soap in a bowl of warm water.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Soak the jewellery in the solution for 5-10 minutes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gently scrub any crevices with a soft-bristle toothbrush or soft cloth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rinse under cool water and pat dry with a lint-free cloth.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-method-2-specialised-silver-polish-ie-goddards-for-moderate-to-tough-tarnish\">Method 2: Specialised Silver Polish (ie.

For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.antiquejewellerycompany.com\/shop\/material\/pearl\/\">pearl<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.antiquejewellerycompany.com\/shop\/material\/opal\/\">opal<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.antiquejewellerycompany.com\/shop\/material\/turquoise\/\">turquoise<\/a> shouldn&#8217;t be submerged in water. Avoid using silver polish near gemstones, it&#8217;s best in these cases to only use Method 1 (mild dish soap). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, the best advice is to consult your jeweller about options for cleaning specific gemstones. Silver jewellery with gemstones like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.antiquejewellerycompany.com\/shop\/material\/diamond\/\">diamond<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.antiquejewellerycompany.com\/shop\/material\/ruby\/\">ruby<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.antiquejewellerycompany.com\/shop\/material\/sapphire\/\">sapphire<\/a> could handle an ultrasonic cleaning to remove all tarnish, and some reputable jewellers provide this service. Other softer stones like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.antiquejewellerycompany.com\/shop\/material\/emerald\/\">emeralds<\/a> cannot sustain ultrasonic cleaners, so again it is best to consult your jeweller. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more specifics on how to clean certain gemstones read our guide on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.antiquejewellerycompany.com\/how-to-look-after-and-clean-your-jewellery\/\">How to Look After and Clean Your Jewellery<\/a>. Or, if your silver jewellery is purchased through us <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.antiquejewellerycompany.com\/book-an-appointment\/\">book an appointment<\/a><\/strong> and come pick the brain of
