I cleaned yellow gold, white gold, silver, Tiffany and Co. jewellery, Swarovski jewellery, diamonds, sapphires and amethyst.

I wouldn’t recommend this for cheap silver jewellery.

The before and after picture is below. It’s hard to capture it well but now this ring is sparkling like it’s brand new.

I wish I took a photo of my swarovski crystal ring before and after because it came up beautifully.

Before
