Beyond the Blue Bottle: Understanding the History and Benefits of Silversmiths’ Polish
When it comes to caring for fine silver, connoisseurs, collectors, and museum curators alike know that not all polishes are created equal. One product that has stood the test of time is Hagerty Silversmiths’ Polish, recognizable by its iconic blue bottle. In this blog post, we’ll explore the history and benefits of Silversmiths’ polish and how Hagerty has become a trusted name for generations of families.
The Art of Silversmithing and Polishing
Step into the world of silversmithing, where skilled artisans transform silver into breathtaking works of art. The deep blue hue of fine silver is not only stunning but also indicative of its quality. Achieving this luster requires the skilled hands of a silversmith, who uses earth compounds, leather, and cotton buffing wheels to carefully burnish the surface of the silver. The process causes light to reflect in a unique way, producing a cast of highly polished, fine silver.
Using the same four compounds as a silversmith, Hagerty Silversmiths’ Polish not only restores the deep blue hue of silver but also continues refining its patina, adding value over the years.
Hagerty Silversmiths’ Polish: A Cut Above the Rest
Hagerty Silversmiths’ Polish is a game-changer in the world of silver polishing. Unlike other silver polishes on the market, Hagerty’s formula not only restores the deep blue hue of silver but also continues refining its patina, adding value over time. In contrast, other silver polishes may cause silver to develop a dull, white finish, diminishing its shine and luster with each use. With Hagerty, you can trust that your silver will maintain its beautiful, timeless look.
In addition to its superior polishing capabilities, Hagerty Silversmiths’ Polish also contains Hagerty’s exclusive tarnish preventative, R-22, that locks out tarnish ten times longer!
