How to Clean Your Precious Jewellery at Home

Your favourite jewellery deserves to shine as brightly as you do. Over time, everyday exposure to lotions, dust, and natural skin oils can dull its sparkle. But don’t worry, restoring its lustre is simple and can be done right at home.

For most gold, platinum, and gemstone pieces, a gentle bath is all you need.

  1. Prepare a Solution: Mix a few drops of mild dish soap into a bowl of warm (not hot) water.
  2. Soak: Let your jewellery soak in the solution for about 15-20 minutes. This will help loosen any accumulated dirt.
  3. Gently Scrub: Use a very soft-bristled toothbrush (a baby toothbrush is perfect) to gently scrub away any remaining grime, especially around settings and clasps.
  4. Rinse and Dry: Rinse the piece thoroughly under cool running water and pat it dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as they can damage delicate metals and gemstones. A little care goes a long way in keeping your treasures sparkling for years to come!
