  1. You can use toothpaste and an old toothbrush to clean silver jewelery. I do this with my silver and diamond rings. You don't need anything else. Just some toothpaste and water and they will be sparkling like they are brand new


  2. leave it in tomato sauce overnight then rinse then dry xx

  3. Things You’ll Need:

    Silver polishing cloth

    Soft cloth

    White toothpaste

    Baking soda

    Silver cleaner

    Step1

    Use a small amount of white toothpaste on a soft cloth and buff jewelry to a shine. Make sure to use a cloth rather than a toothbrush, because the bristles can sometimes scratch the soft metal surface of sterling jewelry.

    Step2

    Buy a silver polishing cloth. Sunshine and Connoisseurs, among others, make cloths treated with chemicals to combat the the natural tarnishing of silver. Cleaning your jewelry this way will take a little time and effort on your part, but will have your valuables looking shiny and beautiful.

    Step3

    Lay your silver jewelry in an aluminum dish and sprinkle generously with baking soda. Boil a little water and pour over your baking-soda-coated jewelry. In a few seconds, your jewelry will be tarnish-free and shiny. Go the extra mile and follow up by buffing your jewelry for a few minutes with a silver polishing cloth.

    Step4

    Go to your local jeweler and buy a cleaner specially formulated for silver jewelry. These can come in the form of silver dips or silver polishing pastes. When using the dip, just do a quick in-and-out with your jewelry, followed by a buffing with a soft cloth. The paste can be used by rubbing it onto the jewelry, leaving for a few minutes and then buffing clean with a soft cloth.

    Step5

    Take it to Tiffany's. When in doubt, the best thing to do is take in your Tiffany silver jewelry to be cleaned by one of the store's professional cleaners. This eliminates all guesswork, and you won't have to worry about damaging your jewelry.
