Silver Gilt
Tuesday, December 7th, 2010Silver Gilt
Selling old silver - is it better to polish or not?
Antique - ish (1935) silver cigarette case. hallmarked with a gilt inlay.
I am thinking of putting it on ebay
Would a collector prefer to buy it as it is, in it's current condition (tarnished) or would it be better to clean it up and make it look more presentable?
Tarnished is good!
Lightly clean with a dry cloth to remove dust but nothing more.
