There are gold jewelry cleaners you can purchase and if you ask, jewelry stores will often clean your gold jewelry for free in one of their cleaning machines. This professional cleaning solution will result in clean and shiny gold jewelry. Fortunately, you can also make your own cleaning solution at home. This will not only avoid using harsh chemicals, but will cost less than buying jewelry cleaner to use at home.
General Care
One of the most important things to do to care for your gold jewelry is to take it off before you shower or wash your hands or the dishes. Keep a ring dish next to your sink. Soap leaves a film that becomes noticeable after a while, and water exposure can loosen stone settings over time, especially pearls. Store your gold jewelry in your jewelry box, preferably one with hooks to hang your necklaces and bracelets so they do not become tangled.
Cleaning
The recipe for cleaning gold jewelry is simple. Mix a few drops of a mild dish detergent in 2 cups of warm water. Dip a soft toothbrush into the cleaning solution. Gently scrub your gold jewelry clean, being sure to dip your toothbrush into the cleaning solution often. When your gold jewelry is clean, rinse it with warm water and buff dry.
