how is the best way to clean and care for turquoise jewelry?

Answer 1

A silver cloth is usually the best way to clean this jewelry - it removes tarnish from silver without damaging the turquoise, and it will also shine the stone.

You can also wipe the piece with a soft, damp cloth, dry well with another soft, absorbent cloth and let it air-dry.

Clean turquoise jewelry often, and when you're not wearing it, wrap it in tissue paper and seal in an airtight plastic bag. This might help keep tarnish at bay.

Here are some other important hints to keep your turquoise jewelry in tiptop shape and out of harm's way:

Don't wear turquoise jewelry when doing housework or yardwork or when cleaning agents or other chemicals are being used.

Don't wear it when using soap or grease.

Don't use a steam or ultrasonic cleaner to clean turquoise.

Don't wear it when using hot water.

Don't soak turquoise jewelry in water.

Answer 2

Turquoise is valued in many cultures and often used in jewelry and other decorative items.
Gently scrub the surface of the stone with the brush. Rinse the brush under running water and then gently clean the silver or gold parts of the jewelry. When you are cleaning jewelry that has turquoise embellishments, do not leave it to soak in water. Turquoise is a porous gemstone that absorbs liquid.
