Visiting my aunt in Charleston, I saw her silver napkin rings in a bowl of water

She said her grandmother's trick for cleaning tarnished silver without harsh polish was to soak it overnight in a mix of warm water, baking soda, and a piece of aluminum foil. I tried it on a tarnished locket from 1910 and the tarnish just wiped off. Has anyone else tried this method on really delicate, old pieces?

That trick works like magic on old silver spoons too.
