<p>[QUOTE="KC Antique, post: 288468, member: 5817"]Totally agree - do not launder the anti-tarnish cloth/bags. Most silver cloth is made of cotton impregnated with silver particles. If you wash it you will wash out the anti-tarnish properties. If you notice that the material changes over time - it is because the impregnated pieces are actually tarnishing. A good shake out of dust/lint should suffice (do not put it thru the dryer!) If it looks gross take some tape or a lint roller gently to the OUTSIDE ONLY.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
