Jewelry takes
special care

Quick-Dip Method — Buy one
of the brand name liquid jewelry
cleaners with its kit, choosing the
kind most useful to you. Read the
label and ‘follow its” instructions.
Don’t touch your clean diamonds
with your fingers. Handle jewelry
by its edges.

Ultrasonic Cleaner — This is a
small machine consisting of a cup
which you fill with water and mild
detergent. When turned on, a
high-frequency turbulence creates
the cleaning action. Read the in-
structions for the machine very
carefully before use.

*KARAT GOLD JEWELRY

Always separate your gold jew-
elry to prevent scratching. Wrap in
a tissue or place in a small clean
‘plastic bag or pouch.

Remove all jewelry before
showering or cleaning. Soap can
leave a film on gold, making it
fook dull.

Ask your professional jeweler to
recommend a coinmercial cleaner
or make your own solution:

Make a mixture of soapy water
(mild detergent) and a few drops
of ammonia, then brush your gold
jewelry with an old soft
toothbrush. Rinse. Finally, dip in-
to rubbing alcohol to remove all
traces of soap or grease and pat
dry with a soft, lintless cloth.

*CULTURED PEARLS

Treat pearls gently. Never toss
them carelessly into a purse of
jewel box. Keep. them separate
from other jewelry as pearls can
easily get scratched.

Put on your pearls after apply-
ing cosmetics, hairsprays and per-
fume as these can be quite harmful
to their lustre.

Bring your pearls back to your
jeweler for restringing about once
a year. Your jeweler will have
them strung with a knot between
each pearl, to prevent loss should
the string break. <

Use only: very mild soap and
water solution to clean your pearls
and brush gently with a very soft
old toothbrush. Rinse and let them.
air dry naturally. Avoid ultrasonic

cleaners, all chemicals and
abrasives, .~

colored gemstones available, your
professional jeweler can guide you
on the care and cleaning of your
specific gemstone. Here are 2 few
tips:

Lapis-lazuli, turquoise, ivory
and amber should never be in con-
tact with a cleaning solution con-
taining any type of bleach, am-
monia or other strong chemicals.

Certain gemstones should not be
cleaned in a ultrasonic cleaner
because they could be damaged.

These include: amber,
aquamatine, emeraid, ivory, jet,
lapis-lazuli, malachite, moonstone,
opal, pearl, peridot, rhodonite,
shell, (cameos), turquoise, tan-

zanite, zircon, and any imitation
stones.

Opals can be safely cleaned in
mild soapy /ukewarm water. It is a
popular misconception that ‘‘oil-
ing”’ will increase an opal’s longev-
ity.
