Author: Sam Serio Sterling silver jewelry: silver and gemstone rings, sterling silver earrings, bracelets and pendants are some of the hottest fashion accessories today! Sterling silver jewelry is enjoying an unprecedented popularity with today's fashion conscious public. You know how beautifully sterling silver jewelry complements fashionable clothing and how it sparkles and shines; now here is the rest of the story. Silver has been used since ancient times, but has not survived as well as ancient gold because it tarnished and decomposes. There have been times, however, when silver was "in"; we are going through such a vogue today. Silver is the most common of the precious metals. Fine silver is pure silver, which is seldom used for jewelry because it is too soft. Sterling silver is 925 parts silver to 75 of copper, the alloy most often used. Silver weighs about half as much as gold, has greater flexibility, but is not as malleable, it has always been less expensive as well. A comparable piece of gold jewelry might cost four or five times that of a piece of sterling silver jewelry. The current fashion trend toward black clothing has made silver jewelry more popular than ever. Silver likes to be worn; it stays cleaner & shinier through movement and friction. So sterling silver is a perfect accessory for today's fast paced lifestyles. Much like gold, sterling silverneeds to be cleaned. Care and Cleaning of your Sterling Silver Jewelry 1.) For daily cleaning it is recommended to use a simple jewelry polishing cloth that is impregnated with special jewelry cleaner. These are widely available and are very easy to use. Store your cloth in a plastic zip-lock bag, and keeping your jewelry drawer or armoire. It is a good idea to have one cleaning cloth for gold and one for silver. 2.) For a slightly more "in-depth" cleaning you may want to use a liquid jewelry cleaner. 3.) For cleaning badly tarnished silver, here's a neat little trick a)Cover the inside bottom of a heatproof glass dish on bowl with a piece of aluminum foil, shinyside up. b)Place the tarnished silver in the bottom of the dish, contacting the aluminum foil. c)Add 1 heaping tablespoon of baking soda, and then slowly pour boiling water to cover the piece. The tarnish will gradually collect on the aluminum foil. d)Remove your silver, rinse thoroughly, and polish. Here are Some Tips for Greater Enjoyment of your Sterling Silver Jewelry 1.) Are your silver chains all tied-up in knots? If so, here's a nifty little trick for straightening them out. Dust your chain with a little talcum powder and then try to unknot it. If the knot is stubborn, place a small drop of baby oil on a sheet of wax paper. Lay the knot in the oil and work it outwith two pins; then clean the chain as instructed below. 2.) Always apply make-up, perfumes, oils or colognes before you put on your jewelry. We hope you have enjoyed this special report. Please feel free to share it with your friends!
