People who prefer silver to gold and choose jewelry made from this metal know firsthand how quickly silver darkens and loses its attractive appearance.

Unfortunately, this process is inevitable.

Instead of getting upset and buying a new item to replace the damaged one, you should look for ways to clean silver from plaque.

Perhaps the most obvious way is to contact a jewelry workshop for professional help.

But if you have baking soda at home, you can handle it yourself.

Take a small metal saucepan, line the bottom with foil and pour in some boiling water.

Add a glass of baking soda inside and stir thoroughly until the white crystals are completely dissolved.

Now you should put the silver jewelry in water and leave it there for 5-10 minutes.

That's it: remove your silver items from the cleaning solution, wipe with a soft dry cloth and enjoy the renewed look of your jewelry.
