How to Clean Blackened Silver to Get It Back as New
Silver objects are among the most precious that we preserve in our homes: whether they are rings, bracelets, necklaces, but also cutlery or other decorative objects, they almost always have an affective as well as economic value.
Silver has, however, a flaw: over time it tends to blacken and lose its natural brilliance. It is a completely natural phenomenon and, fortunately, solvable.
This metal takes on a dark and opaque color due to exposure to sulfur dioxide of the air. The chemical reaction that is produced affects the surface layer of the object, and for this reason it is possible to recover it.
Toothpaste
It is not only useful to keep the mouth free from tooth decay, but can be used to recover the blackened silver.
Wash with soap and water the silver objects, then apply a layer of toothpaste on their surface for 5 minutes. Finally, rinse with cold water and dry well with absorbent paper.
