For most pieces, a mild dish soap and warm water solution is enough. Soak the jewelry for a few minutes, gently scrub it with a soft toothbrush, then rinse and dry it with a soft cloth.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Gold<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Clean with a mild soap solution and a soft toothbrush.
