Gold, platinum, diamonds, and even cubic zircon seem to get the bulk of the attention from jewelry buyers, but one precious metal remains a strong gift idea for just about any occasion. Sterling silver, the most robust of all silvers is a gift that looks great, has enduring value, and can be worn with just about anything.


If you're looking for a special gift to give, you'll want to consider sterling silver jewelry. Let's take a look at various occasions where a silver ring, necklace, earrings, pendant or bracelet makes for an excellent choice amongst a broad selection of gift giving ideas:


Mother's Day - What mother doesn't love jewelry? Necklaces, pendants, earrings, rings, and bracelets can all be fashioned from silver making for an elegant, yet affordable gift for mom. Many young mothers prize silver hope earrings, while silver dangling earrings complement the ears of young and old alike. Silver cuff rings evoke a 1960s era look - in vogue today - while silver chokers and necklaces are additional timeless classics that can be enjoyed for many years to come.


You're Grad - No matter whether someone you love is graduating from middle school, high school, or college, a gift to mark that special event is in order. Shower her with a whimsical sterling silver butterfly pendant or choose a pair of "Back to Nature" shell earrings from Hot Diamonds. Fashioned by leading designers, the cutting-edge Hot Diamonds line is considered to be amongst the trendiest styles of our day, just what your fashion conscious grad would love!


Father's Day - Guys shouldn't be left out when it comes to sterling silver, with many manly gifts available to give to your Dad. Hot Diamonds has an entire silver jewelry line devoted to serving men, including rings, bangles, pendants, and cuff links. Wide, Masculine looking jewelry that allows him to express his ruggedness and individuality.


Birthdays - What should you give your daughter, mother, wife or sister on her birthday? Sterling silver jewelry is a "I can't go wrong with this gift" that she'll treasure for years to come. Mix and match earrings and necklaces or choose a silver pendant that she'll treasure and pass down as a family heirloom. An inscribed silver ring can be a significant gift to help mark an important milestone, including a "Sweet Sixteen" event.


Religious Holidays - Christmas, Hanukkah, and other holidays of religious significance are often marked by the giving of sterling silver jewelry. A pair of silver Hanukkah earrings or a silver ring for Christmas is always a welcome gift, statement making presents keeping with the spirit of these important holidays.


Perhaps the most attractive feature about sterling silvery jewelry for the gift giver is its price - unlike some other metals which continue to rise and fall sharply, silver is stable and will hold its value over the long run, and giving you more choices to consider for that special occasion.

Safest & Easiest Way to Clean Silver Jewelry

Posted by Doncrack Friday, November 21, 2008


Recently my sister-in-law's grandmother passed away and she was left with a rather large collection of antique silver jewelry. The collection included a number of different pieces that were considerably tarnished and while some were enhanced by the presence of the tarnish some needed to have it removed in order to shine up to their full potential. The pieces that were enhanced by the tarnish were those that had intricate engravings and etchings on them. These pieces needed only a quick polish to shine them up in order to look beautiful but the others needed something a little stronger to do the job.

So my sister-in-law searched the internet for products that would take away the tarnish on the silver pieces that she wanted removed. Upon searching Google and a number of different sites she found some companies offering these products.

Some of these products are Tarn-X, Silver Lightning, and Metallux. All of these products are said to work very well on silver and are fairly inexpensive as well but they all also contain harsh chemicals that for one may irritate your skin and second of all are dangerous to have in the house if there are children living there. And although my sister-in-law didn't have a child at the time she was expecting which was also another reason to not use harsh chemical in and of itself, so she decided to look into alternative ways to get rid of the tarnish marring up certain pieces of her collection.

So, we went back to Google and we did another search but this time for homemade tarnish removers for silver jewelry. We found a number of helpful sites that detailed exactly how to make homemade silver jewelry cleaners that were safe and lacking harsh chemicals but yet still would work good enough to remove the tarnish. These homemade cleaners may contain things such as salt, soap, baking soda, and/or water. As you can see none of these materials are at all threatening or dangerous and they work well too.

For one particular homemade cleaner you will need salt, baking soda, water, aluminum foil, soap, and a glass pan big enough to hold these materials plus your jewelry or other silver pieces that you are cleaning. First you will want to cover the bottom of the glass pan with the aluminum foil in order to prevent the bottom of the pan from darkening. After you do this you will boil a solution made up of one quart of water, one tablespoon of baking soda, along with one teaspoon of salt. While you are in the process of boiling the solution you may place your silver in the pan on top of the aluminum foil. After the solution is boiled pour it over the silver and let it sit for five minutes before washing it with warm, soapy water and let dry. This is a safe and easy way to clean silver jewelry and low cost as well.
