When to Clean Jewelry: a Simple, Practical Schedule
For pieces you wear daily, we recommend performing a gentle home jewelry cleaning roughly every two weeks using the Pandora Jewelry Care Kit (including sterling silver cleaning). Less frequently worn items can follow a less frequent jewelry cleaning schedule. Additionally, to keep treasured pieces in optimal condition, consider having your Pandora jewelry professionally cleaned in-store about once a year as part of your Pandora care routine; a professional service can remove accumulated grime and inspect settings for security.

Pandora Care Kit: a Clear Step-by-Step Cleaning Routine
Use this clear, step-by-step routine to create a simple, repeatable home cleaning habit that keeps your pieces looking their best.
- Submerge the jewelry in the liquid cleaner for about two minutes to loosen light dirt and oils and assist tarnish removal without prolonged exposure.
- Rinse each piece under lukewarm water to remove the cleaner, then gently pat dry with a soft, lint-free cloth to avoid water spots and protect plated surfaces.
- For areas with extra build-up—chains, settings or textured finishes—dip the soft cleaning brush in the cleaning solution and use light, circular motions; the soft bristles create suds that lift grime without scratching.
- Finish by buffing each item with the Pandora Polishing Cloth to enhance shine and remove any remaining residue, completing the polishing jewelry step.
- Quickly inspect prongs, clasps and settings after cleaning; if you notice anything loose or damaged, consider professional attention.
Remember that certain materials, such as lab-grown diamonds and natural pearls, need extra care and slightly different handling when planning pearl care and diamond cleaning to avoid damage.

Beyond regular cleaning, tarnish removal and silver cleaning tips, small habits can prolong the life and appearance of your jewelry. Store pieces separately to avoid scratches—soft pouches or individual compartments work well. Keep jewelry away from harsh chemicals, cosmetics, perfumes and chlorinated water, which can dull finishes and weaken settings over time.
When not wearing jewelry for an extended period, wrap items in acid-free tissue or a soft cloth to reduce exposure to air and humidity that can accelerate tarnishing. For items with moving parts or intricate settings, a gentle inspection before cleaning helps identify loose stones or weak clasps that may need professional attention.
