How to clean yellow gold jewelry and objects: a practical guide to preserving their beauty.

Yellow gold is a precious, eternal material, capable of withstanding time without ever losing its allure. However, even the purest and most luminous jewels require periodic care to maintain their original brilliance and preserve their elegance.

At Gioiello Italiano , we work with 14-karat gold every day, and we know how important it is to treat it with care. Here's our simple and effective guide for cleaning yellow gold at home, without damaging it.

Why clean yellow gold regularly?

With daily use, yellow gold jewelry can become tarnished due to:

  • Sweat and natural sebum of the skin
  • Residues of creams, perfumes and soaps
  • Dust and atmospheric agents

Regular cleaning not only keeps them shiny, but also prolongs their life and preserves their aesthetic value.

What do you need?

For a gentle but effective home cleaning, you will need:

  • A bowl with warm water
  • A neutral and gentle detergent (without ammonia or alcohol)
  • A soft microfiber cloth
  • A soft-bristled toothbrush

Optional: a gold polishing cloth (available at jewelry stores).


How to Clean Yellow Gold Jewelry: Step by Step

1. Prepare a gentle solution

Mix a few drops of neutral detergent in a bowl of warm water. Soak the jewelry for about 10–15 minutes .

2. Brush gently

Use a soft brush to remove dirt and debris, especially in less accessible areas (such as joints or chains).

3. Rinse thoroughly

Rinse the jewelry under warm running water, making sure to remove any soap residue.

4. Dry and polish

Dab gently with a soft cloth. For extra shine, you can use a gold polishing cloth.

Be careful what to avoid

❌ Do not use toothpaste, baking soda, or abrasive products: they can scratch the gold.

❌ Do not immerse gold with delicate stones in overly aggressive detergents.

❌ Avoid thermal shock or direct exposure to heat sources.

And what about Gioiello Italiano jewelry?

Our jewelry is made of 14K gold and often embellished with zirconia or natural stones . In these cases, it's best to:

  • Clean the frame with a dry cloth
  • Use only specific products for cleaning gold and stones
  • Avoid prolonged immersion if the stones are set

If in doubt, you can always contact a professional for ultrasonic cleaning or specific treatment.

Preserving gold over time

In addition to cleaning, storage is essential. We recommend:

  • Store jewelry separately in soft bags or lined boxes
  • Avoid contact with other metals or hard surfaces
  • Remove jewelry before sleeping, playing sports, or applying cosmetic products.
