NEVER BUY JEWELLERY CLEANER AGAIN!
I GET ABOUT 100 MESSAGES A DAY REQUESTING THIS... SO HERE IT IS AG
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 tablespoon dish detergent
1 cup water
1 piece aluminum foil

Directions:
1. Heat water in the microwave for 1 or 2 minutes.
2. Cut a piece of aluminum foil that roughly covers the bottom of a small bowl (like a cereal bowl).
3. Pour hot water into bowl. Place salt, soda, and dishwashing liquid into bowl. Place jewelry on top of foil and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes. Rinse jewelry in cool water and dry jewelry completely with soft cloth. Discard solution after use and make a new batch next time.
4. According to wire-sculpture.com, "this works well for gold-filled, brass, german (nickel) silver, and sterling silver. I have even cleaned jewelry with freshwater pearls, shell cameos and mother of pearl with no problem.".
 
I was told by a Turkish jeweller to soak gold jewellery for a few minutes in a mixture of hot water, ammonia & washing up liguid. Gently brush with an old toothbrush. Seems to work for me.
 
You can clean silver just by putting it in a saucepan and boil in water with foil - they used to do it in the past for the household silver. Never tried it with anything else but I dont see why it wouldnt work with jewellery.
