Hi there, I'm Jeff Herman. I know this forum will be a fantastic addition to the field, and I'm happy to entertain any questions on the care and restoration of silver. I eat, drink, and sleep silver, and I'll probably die at the bench working on bringing a battered object back to life. I can't imagine doing anything else!

Hi Jeff,

thanks for the enthusiastic response!!

Do you think I should create a new section called 'silver restoration' ? This could go next to the section on cleaning silver.

Anyway, welcome to the forum.

kind regards

Jonathan

Hi Jonathan,

I think a restoration area would be a jolly good idea. Let's just make sure that the silversmiths answering the questions have the knowledge to do so. I'd be happy to be your "resident specialist."

I too am interested in restoring silver. I have a few hair brain schemes that I think should work but would never dare risk on any of my pieces Wink Still it would be good to know the correct way and even what restoration techniques are available.
