CLEANING TECHNIQUES FOR SILVER AND GOLD JEWELRY  The simplest way to clean silver is to clean with a cleaning solution and cloth.  The silver cleaning cloth should be soft and packed with a detergent agent.  A cup of warm water and a few drops of washing liquid will help to disperse the mess.  Gently wipe the silver with a clean, soft brush.

 Let them air dry.  In a bowl mix the white vinegar and equal parts of water.  Scrape a clean toothbrush into the solution and gently brush the affected areas of silver.  Stand up and let the air dry.

CLEANING GOLD JEWELRY  It doesn't take long for the gold jewelry to fade. Daily signs of fingerprints and dirt can make the fastest gold possible.  A cleaning solution specially designed for jewelry is a safe option, but make sure any solution is for the right metal or jewelry.  Add a few drops of washing-up liquid (or another light reducing solution) to a bowl of water. Extreme temperature changes can damage the ornament, so avoid hot or snowy water.

 Put the ornaments in the dock for ten minutes to remove any dirt.

Clean with a soft brush  Wash thoroughly in clear water to remove any residue of soap and residue. Gently pat dry with a dry cloth or allow it to dry on air.  Gold is a very soft metal that is susceptible to fatigue. Keep this fact in mind during the cleaning and drying process and be as gentle as possible.
