How to Clean 14k Gold Jewellery at Home Safely

Cleaning your jewellery can feel akin to cleaning your makeup brushes (read: not that much fun), but this small chore can help ensure your jewellery stays in perfect condition. Whether you’ve never cleaned your stack before or you’re a regular scrubber, these tips are ones anyone can add to their routine. 

Introduction to Cleaning 14k Gold Jewellery at Home Safely

If you’ve been saving up your old toothbrush for a rainy day, it’s the perfect tool to use for giving your 14k gold jewellery a spa day. To properly clean your pieces, use a solution of warm water and a few drops of mild dish soap. Soak the jewellery for 15-20 minutes, gently scrub with a soft-bristled toothbrush, rinse thoroughly, and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive materials on your precious pieces, because they’ll cause prominent discolouration. Keeping your Padlock Initial Letter necklace as pristine as the day you received it has never been easier. 

Why Cleaning 14K Gold Jewellery is Trending in 2025

What was once the ancient belief system that cleaning jewellery was reserved for a costly trip to the jewellery store is no longer the case. In the DIY era, people are seeking ways to maintain a stunning accessory collection without incurring a significant expense. Whether it’s an at-home brow tint or a spa day for your jewellery, at-home treatments are the buzzword of today. 

Influences from Fashion and Culture

Whether you’re a lover of watching at-home makeup tutorials or your discovery page is full of DIY lash extensions, the rising cost of living has turned the modern generation into one with skilful know-how. Doing things like cleaning jewellery at home has become a trendy way to ensure that your look is as stylish as possible, bringing a freshness to your style that feels as clean as freshly washed hair. Sending this cycle further into giving your favourite Moissanite ring a careful polish will ensure that every jewellery piece you wear looks perfect. 

What Shoppers Are Looking for Now

Gone are the days of leaving every care step to the professionals; people are now looking for seamless ways to keep their stack perfect at home. The right tools make all the difference, and being able to trust in the items you use to clean your treasured pieces makes all the difference. Our Jewellery polishing cloth ensures that your pieces stay as safe as possible, all whilst making them easier than ever to keep spotless. 

How to Choose the Right 14K Gold Jewellery to Clean

If you know that you’ll be handling the maintenance side of things yourself, choosing easy-to-maintain jewellery in the first place can make an incredible difference to your spa-day rituals. Pieces that don’t have too many small, fiddly elements, like our Original Letter Necklace, are exceptionally durable, making them seamless to clean perfectly. The premium soldering techniques we use to attach the letters to the chain ensure that your pieces are kept perfect. 

Style Preferences and Daily Use

Thanks to the ease of cleaning 14k gold jewellery, the style that you opt for won’t impact the ability to get it spotless. Our Boho Sun Huggie Hoop Earrings will be brought back to life with some gentle cleaning and polishing, and wearing them everywhere will be something you won’t think twice about, thanks to their versatility. 

Tips on Sizing, Length or Shape

Issues with size, length, and shape that are noticed during cleaning may be a quick fix, but some do require the care of a professional. 14k gold can be resixed by a jeweller in a worst-case scenario, as well as reshaped carefully if it warps. If the length of your necklace is a concern, each of our necklaces comes with a generous 5cm chain extender, allowing you to wear it closer in a choker style or slightly longer, depending on your preferences. 

How to Style 14K Gold With Other Pieces

Once your jewellery is freshly cleaned and shining, integrating it into a stack will likely be the first thought that comes to mind. Stacking trending 14k gold jewellery in an understated or layered way is one of the best ways to create different aesthetics in your look. 

Minimalist vs Layered Looks

Minimalist Look 

  • Keep your minimalist jewellery subtle yet full of interest with a piece like our Double Molten Sapphire Huggie Earrings. These gold beauties are crafted with a high-quality material, meaning they’ll bring luxury and shine to every look you style 

  • Elevated basics in neutral tones will let your minimalist stack pop, creating a look that’s full of effortless luxury 


Layered Look 

  • Create a handful of your favourite 14k gold stacking rings, and let your fingers represent your creative personality. These simple, quality pieces can quickly add up to make a bold statement, creating visual interest in every jewellery stack 

  • Combine your layered jewellery look with trending patterns, like a statement pair of cheetah-print jeans, and let your fashion-forward energy create a statement 

Mixing with Gold, Silver or Stones

Gold and silver are a combination that's increasingly popular among fashionable individuals, and we must say it’s one we can’t get enough of. The cool tones of the silver contrast in a captivating way with the shining gold pieces, mixing the modern with the timeless perfectly. Adding a birthstone bracelet will let this premium stone showcase your personality, whilst bringing the metaphysical properties of these gems to your stack.
