Silver Jewelry Care

Hey-I just learned that the Crescent Moon shape has been used since ancient times to represent Silver....Hmmm, I think that I just found a basis for a brand logo! CSD with a crescent moon D...

Welcome to my first official blog. I have no idea how this will turn out but here it goes...

I make jewelry and am often asked how to care for silver jewelry. I know it is not always safe to use the ultrasonic cleaner and that soap & water are fine for removing oils and dirt.
