What to put in a box to keep silver from turning black: you won't even have to clean it
After this trick, silver items will look like they just came off the display case.
Not only old jewelry turns black, but also recently acquired ones.
If we put superstitions aside, high humidity and hydrogen sulfide lead to darkening of silver.
Silver can be easily cleaned using a number of folk remedies or by contacting specialists.
But you can simply prevent darkening. This is even easier to do than preparing a cleaning solution.
You will need a piece of chalk, which you need to place in a cloth bag. It is sent to a jewelry box or where silverware is stored.
Chalk removes excess moisture and absorbs hydrogen sulfide. Some jewelers not only place chalk in the box, but also apply it to jewelry, creating additional protection.
Thus, just a few pieces of chalk can help preserve the attractive appearance of jewelry for a long time.
