You can use ammonia mixed with water. Makes my diamonds beautiful.

I use the same solution as for my engagement ring (which has a lot of nooks and crannies) - put earrings in a coffee mug, add a couple drops of liquid dish soap and a few sprays of Windex. Cover with hot water and let sit until water cools. You can then brush off with a soft toothbrush, but I never need that step - the hot water works really well to dissolve grease and get skin/products/dirt/etc. from under the stone.

My jeweler told me NOT to use toothpaste - diamonds are pretty indestructible but it can discolor metals.

my jeweler told me to mix a solution of half windex and half water and scrub with a toothbrush.

My jeweler suggested a soft toothbrush and dawn dishwashing detergent for my engagement ring, I imagine that would work for diamond studs as well.

Interesting - will check it out!


This is what I've always done. Just make sure to plug the sink. I've almost lost a couple of things.

I have a solution from the jeweler for my rings but it's only for platinum settings. Maybe I'll just buy some of that Connoiseur stuff for white gold/diamonds where you throw them in the little basket, let them sit then rinse. I agree, so hard to keep clean - wear these almost daily.

Anyone have tips for keeping diamond studs clean and shiny? Setting is white gold not platinum.
