To restore your jewelry piece's original shine, start by cleaning with a soft cloth. You can also polish using a mixture of equal parts lemon juice and vinegar, combined with enough baking soda to form a paste. An alternate cleaning option is to use opaque toothpaste and a soft toothbrush. With either cleaning solution, rinse the paste off, dry your jewelry immediately. Do not use cleaning solutions directly on any stones on your jewelry. Never use bleach, ammonia, alcohol or acetone to clean your jewelry. When wearing brass or silver jewelry directly on the skin, normal oxidation can result in a temporary, non-toxic skin discoloration that is easily washed off with soap and water. FURTHER NOTES: When not wearing your jewelry, it is best to store it in a cool, dry place or in small bags to minimize exposure to oxidation-causing air and humidity.
