Cleaning silver jewelry with baking soda and salt is a great way to eliminate tarnish. Baking soda is a mild abrasive, which can help remove surface dirt and grime. Likewise, salt is abrasive, so it assists in the removal of dirt and grime.
The chemicals in the solution cause a chemical reaction that polishes and cleanses sterling silver jewelry and other silver-based jewelry. It's not suitable for gold, gemstones, costume jewelry, or other low-cost metals that aren't silver-based, so double-check your materials before applying.
