How to tidy Jewelry
First, any jewelry that has pieces glued on should not be soaked in jewelry cleaner. Instead, use a little Woolite mixed with water, soak the piece for a couple of minutes. Remove the piece from the mixture and dry it immediately – but gently – with a soft cloth. Use a soft toothbrush to gently scrub small crevices.
there's plenty of different brands of jewelry cleaners on the market today. Depending on how your jewelry is made, these products may or may not be safe for your jewelry wholesale! Before using jewelry cleaner, take a nice long look at the jewelry and try to determine what it is made of.
Avoid soaking pearls! they may come from the ocean – but water from your tap may damage them. basically wipe the pearl with a damp cloth, then use a polishing cloth to give it back its shine. never soak any of your jewelry overnight. It isn't necessary, and it may harm the jewelry wholesale. Again, it is important to know what gems are used in your jewelry, how the piece was constructed before determining how you will tidy it.
