How do I clean porous, vintage jewelry?
My neighbor, whose home is FULL of antiques, gave me some very vintage jewelry when I was younger. One of the pieces is a long necklace made of an unknown metal with many large, teal beads. They are so soft and porous, I'm not sure if they're stones. After sitting up on a cabinet in my kitchen for several years, they've accumulated some dust and I tried to wash them, without success. Any suggestions?
Answer:
Take them to a jeweler and they can do it cheap and quick.
