We swear by these cleaning pads. If your silver becomes too oxidized for your liking, these pads are a great solution. With a gentle rub, silver shines again. With the edges, you can reach into more intricate designs. These pads last for a very, very long time. They become gray and darken with use, but don’t let that fool you. They will remain useful until they completely fall apart. We have some that are completely black, but silver still comes out looking brand new.
Comes in a pack of 5. If you are interested in preventing the oxidization in the first place, we also have anti-tarnish sheets for your jewelry box available.
