Cleaning stone set rings and other items

Submitted by Anne

Using an OLD head on an electric toothbrush and a small amount of toothpaste. This cleans all the areas around the stones without being harsh on the jewellery. An electric/battery toothbrush is ideal as it is made to be gentle on teeth and gums and cleans the jewellery perfectly.

not such a good idea Comments By: Anon. on 2004-12-10 I had always heard that toothpaste was great for cleaning jewelry. The jewelry looks great when you do this. However, my jeweler informed me that toothpaste is damaging to diamonds and metals. Try using vinegar and hot water instead.
