My Nana Swore By This Simple Trick to Clean Jewelry With Almost No Work

A small bowl
Warm water
A few drops of mild dish soap
A very soft toothbrush or soft-bristled brush
A clean, lint-free cloth

How to Clean Your Jewelry

  1. Prepare the Cleaning Solution
    Fill a small bowl with warm—not boiling—water.

Add a few drops of mild dish soap and gently mix the water.

You don’t need a lot of soap. A mild solution is usually enough to loosen oils and everyday buildup.

  1. Let the Jewelry Soak

For suitable jewelry, place the piece in the soapy water forseveral minutes.
