How to (gently) polish a silver ring? => 5 photos

  The first thing you must NEVER do is use a 'cloth wheel' to polish the ring. Why not? The chances of damaging the important centre stone claws are all too common.


 These particular wheels come in two sizes: 4-inch & 5-inch widths. These wheels can easily damage the delicate claws on these rings. "BUYER ALWAYS BE AWARE".


  This is my "Magnetic Tumbler", which gently tumbles these delicate rings by making contact with small steel pins inside the plastic beaker. These pins will tumble around in the jar and literally 'polish as it cleans'. For me, this is a 'life-saver'.


 In this great photo, after only 15 minutes, here are the 'before and after' views.

 Can you imagine buffing this ring without the "Magnetic Tumbling" action?
 'One picture is worth a thousand words'.
