100% Horsehair Detail Brush with Solid Oak Handle | For Detailing Silver and Fine Metals in Hard to Reach Places

My Grandmother left me her entire Silver Set when she passed and I've done OK keeping it clean, but since we moved to Texas I guess the humidity has not been good for it because after 8 months it is all black...and I mean SO darn black. This set actually belonged to my Great Grandmother and is over 120 years old. It's gorgeous! I actually had to wash it first and that took some of the black off. There are several pieces to this set that have extremely intricate detail and nothing I do ever gets it super clean. I decided to get this brush to help get into those places. When I got this brush I thought - There's NO way this soft brush is going to do anything to my silver. Boy was I wrong!!! I put some cleaner on the brush and then started to clean the silver. I used it on one of the serving dishes that has this "Grape & Vine" design around the outer 3 inches of the plate, and then I rinsed it in warm water. I was AMAZED at just how clean the silver plate is!! It looks awesome. <My mother won't have a heart attack now if she were to see it!!> This plate is one of the oldest pieces so I know I won't ever get it 100% clean, but I know that would decrease the value...so I'm OK with that. The black that is around the design actually enhances the beauty ~ I think! When I was finished, I cleaned the brush with Dawn and warm water and it's ready for the next cleaning. I did notice a couple of hairs came out, but I attribute that to the hair getting stuck in the really intricate parts of the silver - so it was expected. But only a few hairs came out...the brush is still in great condition. Would I recommend this brush? ABSOLUTELY! If it can get my silver as clean as it did - you won' be disappointed! I cleaned the entire set - which took me 2 weeks <yes I have many pieces>, and it looks beautiful! I even cleaned some of my silver jewelry and it got into places I couldn't get and made it look brand new. I'll be buying more so I'm never without this brush!

I got this brush to gently clean rhinestone jewelry. It was cheaper than a partial horsehair brush I also found here. It's soft and works well on things you don't want scratched but have intricate details that require a brush. I use it dry. My rhinestone jewelry is nice and sparkly now!

I bought this to use on a silver candelabra along with Wrights silver polish cream. This brush worked great. It has soft bristles so it did not scratch but still gave the "muscle" to get it clean. I will buy more of these for cleaning other delicate things.

Wonderful brush for applying my silver cleaner to all the intricate details of some of my sterling! I ended up purchasing another brush to help with the rinsing. It has worked better than using a old toothbrush which can leave fine scratch marks. I have not seen any marking or scratching on my sterling from the horsehair brush.

I was looking for a good quality silver cleaning brush to use with my polish. This little brush does a fine job. Sometimes, I wish the bristles were just a tiny bit stiffer, but that may be a bad idea for scratching silver. I have my own antique business in which I clean a lot of tarnished silver, and this little brush does a great job this the texture parts.

I treasure my Inherited Silver as well as the Silver I have collected. Antique Silver is an investment. This is a gentle brush suggested to me from a Silversmith for care of a Silver Tea Set. It cleans difficult ornate parts of the silver without scratches. If you are lucky enough to own Antique silver this product will help you take care of it.

It definitely gets into crevices and helps to remove tarnish in harder-to-reach areas, but it's not 100% effective even in areas where I thought it would help. Also, some of the hairs come loose while you are working with it and then you have to pull them away, polish and all. All in all, it's a GOOD product, but not a great one. I would recommend buying it if you need something to get into finer areas on silver pieces, but there might be something better out there...

Until I got this honey of a brush I was using old toothbrushes to clean the details on my mothers silverware. Never again! It's soft enough to not scratch surfaces, firm enough to navigate the grooves without removing the patina and holds just the right amount of polish without splattering everywhere. It's not too big, not to small...it's juuuuust right. Loved it so much I ordered a second one for cleaning hard to reach areas on the appliances & around the faucets.

I love this detail brush. I use it to clean spots on my sofa. It does an excellent job cleaning up spills and it is gentle on whatever you are trying to clean.
