Hagerty Silversmiths Gloves

The gloves are treated with an exclusive R-22 tarnish preventative formula embedded directly into the heavy-gauge terry cloth. As you rub the surface of your silver or gold, the fabric lifts away tarnish while simultaneously depositing a protective barrier to slow future oxidation.

Yes, the gloves are constructed from durable, heavy-gauge material designed to withstand multiple washings. However, keep in mind that frequent washing may eventually reduce the concentration of the tarnish-preventative treatment.

Yes, the gloves feature a cotton-flocked lining that keeps your hands dry and prevents direct contact with the cleaning agents. They provide a comfortable, protective barrier while you handle your jewelry or silverware.

Absolutely. They are specifically formulated to be safe and effective on both sterling silver and silver plate, as well as gold items. The soft terry cloth texture ensures you can polish delicate pieces without scratching the surface.

The R-22 preventative formula is designed to significantly extend the time between cleanings by creating a long-lasting shield against air and moisture. While the exact duration depends on your local humidity and how often the item is handled, it is much more effective than standard polishing cloths.
