How to Clean Silver

Not all silver is cleaned the same. ✨ Before you polish — make sure you know what you have. Watch our previous video to determine whether your piece is sterling or silverplate. They are cleaned differently, and using the wrong method can damage your item. Today we’re talking about cleaning silverplate. 👇 What you need: • A good polish — we recommend Bar Keepers Friend or Wright’s Silver Cream • Gloves (polish is harsh on skin) • A super soft foam sponge • A clean microfiber towel How to clean silverplate properly: 1. Test a small hidden area first. 2. Apply a small amount of polish to your soft sponge. 3. Gently rub — never aggressively scrub. Silverplate is a thin layer of silver over base metal. 4. Rinse thoroughly and dry immediately. 5. Buff lightly with a microfiber towel for shine. If you see brassy or copper tones underneath, stop. That means the plating is wearing through. Silverplate can look stunning when cared for correctly — but it requires a lighter touch than sterling. Save this for your next estate sale find or inherited piece.
