Dos and don'ts of cleaning gold jewellery
One of the most important tips for maintaining your gold jewellery is to avoid scratching or denting it. Even the simplest of chores can cause damage. The following are some dos and don'ts for cleaning gold jewellery. Avoid using harsh cleaners. Gold is susceptible to tarnish, which is a chemical reaction between oxygen and the metal. To remove tarnish, you can use a silver-specific cleaner and polishing cloth. In addition to gold, you can clean gemstones by following the same steps as gold.

Natural cleaning agent ammonia
Among the many treasures owned by men and women, jewelry is one of the most precious possessions. The best way to maintain its beauty and shine is to regularly clean it. One of the best ways to do this is to use a natural cleaning agent such as ammonia. This is a safe, cheap way to keep your jewellery sparkling and new-looking. However, it is important to note that ammonia has some drawbacks.

Baking soda
To clean gold jewellery, you should mix baking soda and water to create a paste. If you are cleaning a single gold ring, you can use a small amount of the baking soda mixed with a little water. To ensure that the jewelry is not damaged by the baking soda, make sure that you soak the jewellery in water before you begin cleaning it. It is important to rinse the jewelry until it has no more baking soda residue.

Professional cleaning solutions
Cleaning your gold jewellery should be done in two different ways. If you're doing it at home, use a mild detergent with one part household ammonia in three parts water. Then, rinse the jewelry with lukewarm water and dry it off with a soft cloth. When you're ready to take it to the jewelry store, be sure to return it in its original box. Otherwise, you can make a DIY solution of six parts water to one part ammonia and scrub the piece with a soft bristle brush.

Polishing cloth
Using a gold polishing cloth is one of the most effective ways to restore the shine and luster of your precious metal jewellery. These cloths are impregnated with clever polishing agents and are effective for gold, silver, copper, and other metals. They are reusable and will remain effective for as long as you keep them out of the washing machine. You can even use one of these cloths to clean other types of metals, including plastic, metal, and wood.
