You've got to begin somewhere!

2/3/2013

I've been meaning to start a blog for years but have never been sure if what I've got to say about my life as a designer and jeweller would be of interest to anyone! 

Anyway, I've decided to bite the bullet and put my first post out there and see if how things progress. For the first post I decided why not go the full hog and do a video as well, so this is not only my first blog post but also my first video...

I thought I'd share my advice on cleaning silver and pearl jewellery as this is something I often get asked about. N.B If you have sensitive skin, make sure you wear latex gloves when using silver dip. You can find out more about cleaning jewellery my website http://www.emmakatefrancis.com/caring-for-jewellery.html

I look forward to hearing what you think about it and please ask if you have any questions.

Wish me luck...you've got to start somewhere! Ek x

I find that silver dip, once used on a piece, actually encourages the re emergence of tarnishing. I wonder what do you think?

Hi Amanda,
Good point to raise as you're right that can be the case. I would only recommend using silver dip when sterling silver is vastly tarnished and a polishing cloth just won't remove it. ek
