Cleaning Silver
Methods of cleaning silver should be determined by
the valued placed on it--monetary or sentimental--and the
design of the pattern. Silver with deeply "carved"
patterns that are enhanced by an oxide or French gray
finish should be hand polished with a high quality silver
cream or polish.
Hand rubbing develops patina on silver which adds to
its beauty.
Ornamental silver pieces that have been lacquered may
be washed in lukewarm water; hotwater could remove the
lacquer.
