How to clean silver earrings that have turned black

Silver earrings are a kind of decoration that is loved by many girls. Wearing silver earrings is not only very beautiful, but also has a skin care effect on the wearer. Especially for people with allergies, silver earrings are more suitable, as the chance of silver earrings causing allergies is very small. When silver earrings are worn for a long time, they will turn black and need to be cleaned and maintained in time.

General silver jewelry cleaning method:

When silver oxidizes, you can use silver cleaning water or silver polishing cloth to polish the silver jewelry. However, silver cleaning water is very lethal, so try to just wipe it with a silver-polishing cloth; if you use silver cleaning water to polish it, rinse it immediately and rub it gently, clean the chemicals on the surface, and blow it dry with a hair dryer, otherwise the oxygen in the water will accelerate the oxidation of the silver.

Cleaning method for severely oxidized silver jewelry:

1. Soak the jewelry in a sodium bicarbonate (commonly known as baking soda) solution, then add a few pieces of broken aluminum sheets under the jewelry and heat them together to remove black spots and restore the original color.

2. Buy a pack of developing powder for developing photos, add 1 kg of clean water and stir to make a solution. Soak the silver jewelry for 5 minutes, then wash it with clean water and wipe it with a soft cloth.

3. Wash with a 1% hot soapy water solution, then moisten the surface with sodium thiosulfate solution, and then wipe with a flannel cloth to make the silver jewelry clean.

4. Send it to a professional silver jewelry cleaner for cleaning. This method may cost some money.

How to clean and maintain silver earrings ?

Silver earrings can enhance the wearer's temperament and will not cause allergies. How do you clean and maintain your beloved silver earrings? The biggest reason that causes silver earrings to oxidize is the chemical reaction between the oxygen in the air and the silver earrings, so blocking the air is the best way to maintain the silver earrings. For example, when not wearing them, put the silver earrings in a sealed plastic bag and then put them in a jewelry box to block the contact between air and the silver earrings.

There is also a little trick to make silver earrings shiny. If you want to make the newly bought silver earrings more shiny and prevent them from turning black, you can apply a thin layer of transparent nail polish on the surface, and then apply it again every ten days. If you want to remove nail polish, soak it in banana water and then wash it with water. However, silver earrings are worn on the ears, and people with allergic skin are advised not to do so.
