Regular cleaning helps jewelry look its best. We recommend that you bring your jewelry in to your local jeweler every six months to one year for a professional cleaning. But, in between visits to the jeweler, you can use these techniques to help keep your jewelry looking great.
We cover several different cleaning methods including:
- Windex and toothbrush
- Jewelry cleaning solutions
- Ultrasonic cleaners
- Steam cleaners
- Polishing cloths
With any cleaning method, you should always be very careful to avoid damaging fragile gems. We recommend that you get the advice of a gemologist before cleaning your jewelry at home to make sure the technique you use won't damage it.
We also cover some common myths about cleaning jewelry at home including:
- Toothpaste
- Boiling water
- Soaking overnight in amonia
If you have any questions or if you need a good place to have your jewelry professional cleaned, please get contact us. We would love to help.
