Chemicals
Different jewellery needs different types of cleaning materials. They also need different cleaning techniques to preserve their shine and prevent untoward damage to them. Sterling silver is cleaned differently from how gold jewellery is cleaned. For instance, it is not good to clean jewellery that has some loose precious gemstones in them. The most commonly used cleaning materials are baking soda, salt and ammonia because they do not react extensively with most jewellery materials. However, when in doubt, it is best to consult an expert jeweller to avoid damaging your jewellery by experimentation. A soft brush together with a micro-fibre cloth can be used to buff the pieces to make them look brand new again. Precious possessions like wedding diamond bands, gold bracelets, and precious stones such as sapphires, emeralds and opals need special care to keep their lustre and sparkle forever.
