Cheap Gold Jewellery: How to Keep Their Sparkle?

  • Related Articles
  • Related Q&A

There are simple steps in maintaining the luster of your most loved jewellery. The ingredients you can use can also be found in your own kitchen.

Here are a few simple steps on how to keep your jewellery looking brand new:
• You can use a mild "dish washing" detergent. This can be purchased from your local grocery store. Avoid the use of solutions that contain harsh chemicals. These harsh solutions can do further damage to your jewellery and further cause some more problems. Common solutions used by many are tooth paste and baking soda. This is although baking soda is too abrasive and tooth paste has a tendency to diminish the natural colour of your gold item.

• Get a bowl and fill it with at least one cup of warm water. The warm water's temperature should be maintained because, at this temperature, any filth that becomes impacted on the sides of your charms can be easily removed.

• Next, mix your mild "dish washing" detergent into the warm water.

• Thoroughly stir it in order to create a soapy solution.

• Place your jewellery item into the solution for around one to two minutes. Do not soak for more than 2 minutes because this can totally ruin the colour of your jewellery.

• After submerging the item, do a swirling motion onto the cup so as to make some current on the cup. This current will apply some pressure and the item can be totally washed.

• Clean the inner portion and small corners of your necklace, bracelet, ring, or earrings as well.

• After this, utilize an already used soft toothbrush to lightly scrub your item. This is best if you do it lightly so as to avoid doing further damage on your item. You might get one of your stones washed off because of intense brushing.

• Rinse this thoroughly with clear, warm water.

• Then, polish it gently with a soft 100% cotton cloth. Making sure the cloth is clean and free of debris. This way, it can bring back the sparkling feature of your item, just like when you had purchased it. Do not use tissue paper. This may contain some piece and particles that can scratch you gold's surface, leaving leave behind some small chunks of tissue within the small crests of your item.

• Before storing it together with your other gems, make sure it lies flat. It needs to be air dried completely. Complete dryness can be attained through an overnight exposure of your gold item. If you store it while its hidden sides are still wet, it can promote fungal and bacterial growth, causing allergies, illness and may even influence your other jewellery. The rationale for this is that the moisture present can speed up the tarnishing process. Once your item is dry, it will look dull. This is why rubbing it gently with a polishing cloth can help you see it shine again.

• To avoid scratches, rub the polishing cloth in varying straight lines but never with a circular motion.

• In storing your item, you need to put it in individual cases or cloth bags because your jewelleries may scratch each other and can further cause damage.

• If your gold jewellery still looks dark and dirty, it needs aggressive and thorough machine cleaning. Many jewellers have a type of machine that does automatic cleaning. Aside from this, many types of mechanical apparatus such as a steam, ultrasonic or ionic cleaner can be appropriate for specific pieces of gold jewellery. If this is so, you can ask them to clean your gold for you. This request can entirely help you attain the original sparkle and shine of your item.

A beautiful piece of jewellery, whether it's cheapest or the most expensive of all, needs cleaning and maintaining. Your sweat, oil excretions from your body, perfume, lotion and even your make- up can tarnish your jewellery. It can make it look dull and lacking in luster.

Through proper maintenance, merely by cleaning it regularly, you can retain the sparkling attribute of your most loved jewellery.
