Rings, necklaces and bracelets can all benefit from this quick, inexpensive and effective trick. An option for those who want to keep their jewellery looking flawless without complicating their lives.
The passage of time and daily wear and tear often leave their mark on our jewellery, especially silver rings. The characteristic shine that we love so much gradually fades, especially in the summer months, when the beach, sweat and sunscreen accelerate the deterioration process. However, there is no need to go to the jeweller or invest in expensive specialised products to restore their splendour.
According to an influencer specialising in jewellery, known as San Saru, who has taken social media by storm, there is a home remedy that promises spectacular results. In fact, many TikTok users have already tried it and agree that it works ‘as if they had been professionally cleaned’. Best of all, there is no need to scrub or use harsh chemicals.
The detailed process is very simple, and you probably already have everything you need at home. Just boil some water and prepare a bowl lined with aluminium foil. It’s important to note that the matte side of the foil should face down, a detail that, according to people who have already tried it, makes all the difference.
Next, once the water is hot, pour it into the bowl and add two tablespoons of baking soda. When you place the silver rings in this mixture and leave them to sit for about 15 minutes, a chemical reaction occurs that removes the dirt and restores the metal’s natural shine.

The result is surprising: the rings come out sparkling, without the need for scrubbing or using brushes. Just dry them carefully with a soft cloth and enjoy silver that looks like new. However, there is one important warning to bear in mind. If the jewellery has details that have been blackened on purpose, a very common finish in handmade pieces or those with a vintage look, this method is not recommended, as it could alter the decorative effect.
