How often should you clean gold jewelry?

Gold jewelry worn daily should be cleaned monthly. A quick cleaning with soapy water (2–3 minutes) is sufficient to remove skin oil, sweat, and lotion residue and maintain its shine.

Cleaning intervals based on frequency of use

• Rings and bracelets worn daily: Clean every 2–4 weeks
• Chains worn regularly: Every 4–6 weeks
• Jewelry worn occasionally: Before and after wearing
• Professional cleaning at the jeweler: Once a year – including a prong check

Why an annual visit to the jeweler is important

During professional service, not only are gold surfaces polished, but also prongs (stone settings) are checked for stability. Loose prongs lead to stone loss – a 30-euro check prevents 500 euros in damage.
