Home Ec: Cleaning Silverware By: Grace Bonney

Home Ec: Cleaning Silverware


Julia and I are having our first big group of people come and stay with us upstate this weekend and we’re doing plenty of cleaning and prepping to get ready. The biggest prep is that our wood burning stove is finally (!!) being finished today so we’ll be able to get the house above 55 degrees, fingers crossed. But now we’re on to smaller projects like unpacking dishes and serving pieces we brought from Brooklyn and getting everything cleaned and ready to use. We inherited a beautiful set of Bakelight silverware from Julia’s family, so I’ve been trying to find the best way to clean it, along with our other serving ware. So if you’ve ever wondered how to get the things you love cleaned, without damaging them, read on to find the best tools and materials to clean your favorite silverware, from solid silver to resin, copper and pewter. xo, grace
