Brushes FAQ

What type of jewelry cleaning brush should I use for delicate gemstones?

For delicate stones like opals, pearls, or emeralds, we recommend using a soft bristle jewelry cleaning brush—preferably made from natural or soft nylon fibers. These brushes gently remove dirt and buildup without scratching the stone or setting.

Can I use a metal wire polishing brush on silver jewelry?

Yes, but with caution. Brass or fine steel polishing brushes can help remove tarnish or oxidation from silver, but they should be used at low speeds to avoid over-polishing or surface damage. Always test on a small area first.

What’s the difference between a polishing brush and a jewelry cleaner brush?

A jewelry cleaner brush is typically used for removing dirt, dust, and grime during cleaning. A polishing brush, on the other hand, is designed for the finishing stage—bringing out shine and smoothing surfaces after buffing or grinding.

How often should I replace my jewelry brush?

The lifespan of a jewelry brush depends on frequency of use, material, and task intensity. For daily polishing or heavy-duty cleaning, replace your brushes when you notice fraying bristles, loss of shape, or reduced effectiveness.

Are miniature brushes effective for cleaning tight areas like stone settings?

Absolutely. Miniature jewelry brushes are ideal for intricate areas, such as prongs, filigree, or under bezel settings. Their compact size and precise control allow you to clean and polish where larger brushes can’t reach.
