Maggie,

Toothpaste works great on jewelery gold or silver, worth a try.

A paste of baking soda and water.![]()
Thank you Wolf_Q!
If its REALLY tarnished, there's a baking soda, salt & hot water dip your can do (cheaper and safer than the store-bought dips and just as effective). I found the recipe last year when dealing with a large amount of very tarnished silver - Google is your friend. The tarnish pretty much just slips off. Then there's a 3M silver cream (can't remember the name -darn! Need more coffee this a.m.) that's real easy to use to polish.
Silver is a pain to keep up though. I have so much - my late husband was a collector - and it's almost impossible to sell. Even the local antique dealers won't touch it.
Be careful though, some of the commercial dips take a layer of silver right off with the tarnish (if it is silverplate).
The creams are the best to use, or at least what I have learned.
I have Tarn-x, but still need the silver done....the rose cloths I have work ok. Baking soda, salt and hot water? Hmmm....I remember Googling this but not finding that idea.
Thanks!
