How do I keep my sterling silver earrings clean?

Cleaning and caring for sterling silver earrings

Sterling silver earrings tend to tarnish. Here are some tips to keep your sterling silver earrings looking their best.

- Never store sterling silver earrings and gold earrings together. The metals react to one another - gold will turn sterling silver black.

- Use white toothpaste and a toothbrush to remove tarnish from your sterling silver earrings. You may also soak your sterling silver earrings in baking soda and water.

- Polish with a soft cloth.
