How to Clean Bronze Jewelry

Bronze jewelry tarnishes fairly easily. Even if your bronzed jewelry needs to be cleaned, you may avoid doing so in fear that you will ruin it. Cleaning bronze jewelry may be easier than you think. In many instances, you do not need to take your bronze jewelry to a jeweler to have it cleaned. You can clean it yourself.
1. Wipe the bronze jewelry with a silver polishing cloth.
2. Place 2 to 3 drops of mild detergent onto the bronze jewelry.
3. Rub the detergent all over the jewelry with your fingers.
4. Hold the jewelry under running water to rinse the soap off.
5. Gently wipe the water off of the bronze jewelry with a clean and dry silver polishing cloth.

Maintenance of Coral Jewelry

1. Treat your coral necklaces, bracelets, earrings and anklets gently. Lightweight, soft and delicate in its organic origins, coral gemstone jewelry is easily chipped and requires special care if it is to last.
2. Don your coral beads after you`ve cleaned your skin of perspiration and dirt, and after you`ve already put on any perfumes, lotions, makeup, hairspray and scented oils. Cosmetics, acids and other chemicals can damage or stain coral.
3. Keep your coral beaded jewelry out of the heat and sun as much as possible, to avoid fading the color.
4. Keep your coral beads out of highly humid areas and avoid getting your coral jewelry wet, as water with chlorine and other chemicals can damage it. So remember to take off your coral beads before you bathe or go swimming, either in a swimming pool or at the beach.
5. Keep your jewelry out of overly dry conditions, as well. Coral does best in moderate humidity.
6. Store your coral beads in acid-free tissue paper separate from other stone and metal jewelry that might damage them. Do not use plastic or other airtight containers that don`t allow the coral to "breathe."
7. Avoid wearing your coral beads next to coarse fabrics that might scratch it.
8. Take special care when wearing coral bracelets and rings, which are likely to get wet, bumped and abused the most.
9. Touch the coral part of your jewelry as little as possible.
10. Clean the beads with a damp cloth after use and blot them dry with a soft microfiber cloth.
