Beautiful sterling silver baby rattle. This one makes the greatest little "tingling" noise. Silver rattles are not just luxury items. Did you know that they have actual homeopathic medicinal value? First of all NEVER polish a silver rattle that a baby will touch much less put in it's mouth. Wash it with regular dish soap and rinse well only when necessary. The oxidation on the rattle acts as an antiseptic. That means that it actually helps to numb a teething baby's gums. Beauty and function- what a perfect gift.
