>Cleaning Your Emerald Jewellery

Things Required

• Soft Cloth
• Lukewarm Water
• Mild Liquid Soap
• Soft-bristled Toothbrush
• Small Bowls
• Towel

Procedure

• Before cleaning the emerald jewelry, you need to polish it with a clean, dry and soft cloth. This will remove the loose deposits of oils and dirt from the gemstone.
• After you have polished the jewellery well, it is time to start the cleaning process. Make a soapy solution, by mixing few drops of mild liquid soap with lukewarm water, in a small bowl.
• The next step is to scrub the jewellery, to remove the tough dirt sticking onto it. A soft-bristled toothbrush is the best bet, because it won’t leave scratches on the gemstone, when you scrub it.
• Scrub the toothbrush, dipped in the soapy solution, all over the piece of jewelry. Make sure that you have removed dirt from the hard-to-reach areas of the jewelry as well.
• When you find that all the dirt has been removed from the emerald jewelry, rinse it with lukewarm water.
• Now, submerge the jewellery in another bowl, filled with lukewarm water. Leave it for a minute, so that the leftover soap residue gets removed.
• Remove the jewelry from the water and dry it, using a clean soft towel.
• After you are done with the cleaning process, store your precious emerald jewelry in a cool and dry place or wear it again.

Tips

• To remove tough dirt and oil from the emerald jewelry, it is suggested to get it cleaned from a professional jewelry cleaner.
• Never use harsh soap or abrasive cleaners, to clean the gemstone. It might damage the stone.
