How to clean jewelry safely
Gentle methods for gold, silver and gemstones.
Care & preservation
Warm water, mild dish soap and a soft toothbrush clean most gold and diamond jewelry.
Pearls, opals and emeralds are delicate — wipe with a soft damp cloth only.
Have prongs checked by a jeweler yearly to avoid losing stones.
