Periodic cleaning of your precious jewellery will help you maintain
their original beauty for a long period. Never clean your jewellery
over the sink, instead make use of a bowl.
Warm Detergent Wash
• First take a shallow bowl and mix a little household detergent
in warm water.
• Place your jewels in the bath for a few seconds and gently
brush with a soft old toothbrush.
• Then transfer them carefully to a wire tea strainer or
a sieve and rinse under running water.
• Pat dry with a soft cotton cloth immediately. Your jewels
will glitter like new now.
While cleaning any jewel in the warm detergent bath, avoid harsh
fibres, household scrub or coarse powder. Use only a mild household
detergent.
Ultrasonic Cleaners
Another easy solution to keep your jewels clean is to make use
of, 'Ultrasonic Cleaners'. These machines can clean your jewellery
in a matter of minutes by creating high-frequency turbulence.
They are available with all leading jewellery stores and can be
a convenient way to quickly clean your jewels. However, special
care needs to be taken when cleaning stone-studded jewellery as
vibrations created might loosen the settings in the jewel and
may cause the stones to fall.
Cleaning Pearls:
For cleaning pearls, use only a mild detergent solution, highly
diluted. Quickly clean and rinse in running water immediately.
Wipe the pearls with a soft tissue after cleaning.
Note:
These instructions are only a guideline to help you preserve you
precious jewellery in its original beauty.
