Care and preservation
A treated silver polishing cloth is usually enough for light tarnish; for heavier tarnish use a silver foam or cream, rinse with warm water and dry thoroughly. Avoid silver dip for hollow pieces. Store wrapped in acid-free tissue or a tarnish-proof bag, and keep rubber bands away from silver.
Delivery and returns
All purchases include free UK delivery. UK orders are sent by trusted couriers, including FedEx, with tracked delivery typically arriving within a week of dispatch.
