Jewellery Cleaning & Polishing
Even with the best care, jewellery naturally loses its shine over time. Everyday wear can leave behind dirt, oils, soap residue, and fine scratches that dull the appearance of your favourite pieces.
At Cornerstone Jewellers, we offer professional jewellery cleaning and polishing services to help restore your jewellery's brilliance. Whether your jewellery simply needs a refresh or a more thorough polish, we'll recommend the most suitable treatment for your piece.
Professional Jewellery Cleaning
Professional cleaning removes the everyday build-up that can hide the beauty of your jewellery.
We use an ultrasonic cleaning system, which uses high-frequency sound waves to gently lift dirt and debris from hard-to-reach areas that are difficult to clean by hand. This process is particularly effective for intricate settings and jewellery that has accumulated years of everyday wear.
Before any jewellery is cleaned, we inspect it to ensure it is suitable for ultrasonic cleaning, as some gemstones and older jewellery require alternative cleaning methods.
Professional Jewellery Polishing
While cleaning removes dirt, polishing restores the finish of the metal itself. Using professional polishing equipment, we carefully buff the surface of your jewellery to reduce light surface scratches, remove dullness, and restore its natural shine. Polishing can dramatically improve the appearance of well-loved jewellery, making it look brighter and more refined.
For some pieces, we may also use a specialised jewellery tumbler, which gently burnishes the metal to create an even, lustrous finish and reach areas that are difficult to polish by hand. Depending on the condition of your jewellery, we may recommend cleaning, polishing, or a combination of both services for the best result.
Restore Something You Love
This special silver bracelet arrived heavily tarnished with a missing clasp. After a careful polish and a brand new handmade clasp, it's looking bright, refreshed, and ready to create many more memories.
If your favourite jewellery has lost its shine, we'd love to help bring it back to life.
