While you use your wedding jewellery, there is a big possibility that dirt and other particulates ruin its beauty. Therefore it becomes vital to clean your jewellery and that too in the right manner (else it may harm your precious even more!). Use 100% cotton cloth for cleaning. Dab it with lukewarm water and gently wipe off all the dirt from your jewellery. Soft muslin cloth can also be used for gentle cleaning. Avoid using tissue paper for the same. It might cause scratches to your jewellery. You can use any jewellery cleaning solution available at the jewellery store.

After you’ve done the cleaning, be patient enough for the jewellery to dry out completely before storing it. It is advisable to store your wedding jewellery in air tight containers. This will protect them from moisture. Place the jewellery separately. It should be in velvet lined boxes to avoid scratching. Silica gel sachets will help you keep away the excess moisture from jewellery. Also, ensure that you neither wear nor keep the silver and gold jewellery together. The very-much-trending silver jewellery can be stored in tarnish resistant cloth.
