How to Clean a Green Gold and Diamond Ring

Cleaning green gold rings typically requires the same process and materials that you would use to clean regular gold jewelry. But a mixture of gemstones on one setting can make it tricky to find the proper cleaning solution. Most people would probably turn to using a regular dishwashing liquid to clean a green gold and diamond ring, but ammonia works better, as it removes hardened grime.

Things You'll Need

• 1 cup warm water 1/4 cup ammonia Soft toothbrush Tissue

Instructions

1. Mix 1 cup warm water with 1/4 cup of ammonia.

2. Soak ring in the solution for 15 to 20 minutes to remove the grime from the ring.

3. Gently scrub the ring with the soft bristles of the toothbrush to remove dirt in the hard-to-reach areas, such as the prongs.

4. Rinse the ring, then lay it on a tissue to dry.
