Gold is tarnish-resistant, although it can get smudged and grimy. Lotions, powders, soaps, even natural skin oils can cover your jewellery and cut down on its brilliance. Jewellery cleaning removes this residue and restores the original luster of your jewellery.

Even though many commercial products are available to clean gold jewellery, a basic solution of detergent and water goes a long way to restore the radiance of gold, and a soft brush helps to gently clean intricate filigree designs and stones. Every now and again it can be helpful to soak the gold jewellery in a mixure of 1 portion ammonia and 6 parts water for about a minute. Make sure to dry and polish your gold jewellery with a soft cloth or chamois afterwards.
