Earrings Nib

Untangling silver chains or necklaces requires patience so if you don’t have the ability to sit through a tedious task, don’t even attempt it. You’ll end up damaging your jewelry.

The thin and fragile silver chains are the toughest to handle even if they have just a single knot. However, whatever chain you’re handling don’t pull or jab at the knot. You will also need to work on one knot at a time.

Step 1: Begin by taking out the pendant if possible.

Simple knots can easily be worked out with a safety pin or ballpoint pen nib. Use a used felt tip pen if you have one. The nib is pointed yet soft enough to work with the fragile links. Understandably, pick a used pen that has no ink. Begin by inserting the nib or safety pin needle into the center of the knot and turn it about slowly. Soon, you will feel the knot hole widen and eventually you can pull it loose. If you are working with difficult knots and a fragile chain, you will need to work differently.

Step 2: Fetch a card sheet and thumb tacks. Pin down one end of the sterling silver chains and spread them out across the sheet. Take the first knot of each chain and pin one edge of it down very firmly. The trick lies in not pinning the entire knot but only one part of it.

Step 3: If the silver chains have corroded, dip them in a solution of a quarter cup of vinegar and one tablespoon of baking soda for about 15 minutes. Wash the silver chains with warm water and then pin them to the card sheet.

Step 4: Locate the end of the chain running out from side of the knot that is not tacked down. Slowly start pushing it in towards the knot. Do this repeatedly and also simultaneously use a safety pin if required.

Step 5: After performing Step 4 repeatedly, unpin the knot and check if has loosened and you can pull it out with your hand. If it is still tight enough, you will need to pin half the knot back and try again.

You may need to use some baby oil to rub into the knots in the sterling silver chains before attempting to untangle them this way. Another trick is to work on one knot a day in badly tangled sterling silver chains. That ways you are unlikely to give up the project too soon. However, if you still cannot work the knots out, you will need to take the silver chains to a jeweler for help.
