Where NOT to wear your silver
Silver tarnishes when exposed to certain elements, thus it pays to use this precious metal in appropriate places. As part of best practice, sterling silver manufacturers don’t recommend the use of silver inside the shower, in pools, ocean, inside a sauna or even a hot tub. The high chlorine content and even the minerals found in swimming pools can hasten the development of tarnish, thus tarnishing the silver.
How to clean and remove tarnish
Sterling silver can be cleaned and maintained in a variety of ways. A simple yet effective way to clean silver is through the use of aluminum foil and baking soda. Simply place a double layer of foil in the bottom of the pan, add warm water and at least 2 tablespoons of baking soda. Once the mixture is complete, you can now place the silver jewelry into the pan so it will get in contact with the foil. Let the silver soak in the mixture for a few minutes, rinse and polish it off using a clean cloth to transform its looks. There are also products that are formulated to clean the tarnish, from silver polish to cloth
