Easy Way to Clean Sterling Silver Wire

Here’s a tip to help you both clean and straighten sterling silver wire at the same time.

If you use a cloth to straighten sterling silver wire, simply add a small amount of baking soda on a cloth and then run the wire through it as you are straightening it. The baking soda will remove any tarnish from sterling silver wire as well as that dull coating that gold wire often accumulates after time.

This technique also works for cleaning liquid silver necklaces.
