How to Care for Your 22K Gold Jewellery at Home

Fine jewellery is an investment meant to last a lifetime, but even the highest quality 22K gold needs a little tender loving care to maintain its radiant shine. In this guide, we will walk you through the safest and most effective ways to clean your Ruhvi pieces at home.

1. The Gentle Soap Method

The best way to clean your gold jewellery is often the simplest. Mix a few drops of mild dish soap into a bowl of warm (not hot) water. Let your jewellery soak for about 15-20 minutes to loosen any accumulated oils or dirt.

2. Use a Soft Brush

After soaking, use a soft-bristled toothbrush to gently scrub the pieces. Pay special attention to the areas around diamond or gemstone settings, as this is where lotion and dirt tend to build up. Never use toothpaste or baking soda, as these are abrasive and can scratch the gold.

3. Rinse and Dry Safely

Rinse the jewellery under warm running water. Always make sure the drain is plugged first! Pat the pieces dry with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid paper towels, which can leave tiny scratches on the metal's surface.

When to Seek Professional Cleaning

While home cleaning is great for regular maintenance, we recommend bringing your everyday pieces to a professional jeweller once a year for an ultrasonic cleaning and prong inspection to ensure your diamonds are secure.
