Question 1

How do i keep my silver jewellery clean?

Accepted Answer

All silver will tarnish over time. It is very easy to keep your silver jewellery looking clean and shiny. Ideally you should store your silver in an airtight container away from the light. Give your silver jewellery a quick polish with a silver cloth before wearing or if it is beginning to look dull or tarnished. Heavily tarnished silver can be cleaned using a silver dip, which should be readily available from your local hardware store or larger supermarkets. Do not use a silver dip with silver jewellery, which has an oxidised finish or which has stones, ambers etc. Only use as a last resort.

Silver Jewellery should be removed before going to bed and bathing.

Question 6

What is metal clay ?

Accepted Answer

Metal clay handles similar to traditional modeling clays, and, when dried, it is transformed into a solid object through a firing process. During firing, the methyl cellulose, typically called "binder", is burned away and the metal particles "sinter" into a solid form. Sintering is the process of making a powdered material (in this case, metal clay) coalesce into a solid mass by heating it to a very high temperature, just below the point of liquefaction.
