- Cleaning Vintage Jewelry. Today I’m going to show the different methods I use for cleaning pieces of vintage costume jewelry. I will also show how I remove verdigris/ the unsightly green gunk that can get on pieces of jewelry.
Please watch the content all the way through as some of these methods will not work with rhinestones. - Навчання та стиль
You clean using the same old good methods I grew up on as a farm child. Gentle, effective and thorough. PS. Verdigris is pronounced “vurr-di-greee” - s is silent. You are one of my favorite collectors!
Thank you Maureen! 😊❤️❤️❤️

Great tips ❤️ I’m impatient and use my dishwasher tab method for many pieces. 🤣( nothing under 4 on the MOHs scale)
Love your whole process in detail.

Thank you ❤😊
Thank you for watching Susan❤️❤️❤️
Thank you 🎉
Thank you! I appreciate you watching 😊
Thank you for this!! Rewatching!!
I’m guessing white vinegar and dawn soap is probably the best way to go!!
Thank you!! ❤😊
❤️❤️❤️❤️ you can also try a dish washer tab disolved in a gallon of warm water. It’s not as harsh. 😊
Thank you. New subbie here. Take care
Thank you Peppermint!❤️❤️❤️I see you have a channel. I’m going to subscribe and watch some of your videos 😊
You didn’t clean the silver looking bracelet at the bottom of the screen. I have that one. It was my grandmother’s.
Your correct Shannon. I didn’t clean it during the content. Many of my subscribers do not like for my content to run too long so I skipped that pieces but it’s the same method to clean that piece. Thank you for watching 😊❤️❤️❤️
I have about 2 to 3 lbs of nice costume jewelry and I am afraid to clean the pieces.
Some have semi precious stones and pearls.
Any advice?
If they have semi precious stones or pearls then I would highly recommend having them professionally cleaned by a jeweler. Profesional cleaning isn’t as expensive as you would think. I would call around and get a few estimates. Hope this helps ❤️❤️❤️
Would this work on a filigree necklace that I have? I don't believe filigree is real sterling silver. Thank you.
Yes I’ve used it on costume filigree 🙂❤️❤️
@@VintageVariety thank you
Do you have any experience with ultrasonic cleaner?
Hi Aimee, I’m not a fan of the ultrasonic cleaner. It works okay on fine jewelry but not so much for costume. 😊❤️❤️❤️
Do u rinse off the vinegar water?
Yes😊❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have a 150 yr old garnet necklace that I can't polish with a cloth. I'm not doing tomato sauce... Idk
Hi GirlJayme have you considered having it professionally cleaned? Most jewelers will provide cleaning for a small service, especially if it’s done in precious metals.
Really useful. Thank you
Pro tip: it’s actually pronounced ver-de-gree 😊
❤️
whats the solution? white vinegar and soap?
It’s white vinegar with a drop of dish liquid stirred into it. Thank you for watching. ❤️❤️❤️
@@VintageVariety thx you so much
That old glue looks horrible but the earrings look much better! You might could carefully pick that off with some dental tools.
❤️❤️❤️
You sound awfully Southern or am I wrong? I am in AL.
Yes I am southern. I was born and grew up the foothills of the Appalachian in Georgia 😊
Putting stranded beads in tomato sauce is a BAD idea. You can see how the sauce has discolored the cord that the beads are strung on.

Verdigris is french and pronounced Verdi gree
❤️❤️❤️
You do not pronounce the s in Verdigris
Thank you!❤️
It’s pronounced Verdegree, not verdigris it’s French word.
😊 thank you
