How to clean sterling silver bracelets

Sterling silver bracelets can tarnish over time, but don't worry! Tarnish is easy to remove and prevent with regular cleaning. Start by soaking a sterling silver bracelet in our cleaning solution for a few minutes, then remove it and pat it dry. The white side of a Pandora polishing cloth is infused with a special cleaning solution for sterling silver, so polish your pieces with this side to buff out small marks and remove scratches.

How to clean gold-plated bracelets

Don't let gold-plated bracelets lose their glow! Gold-plated jewelry can fade if you clean it too often or too harshly, so avoid overcleaning or over-polishing. When it's time to clean your gold-plated bracelets, soak them in our kind cleaning solution and pat them dry. The pink side of a Pandora polishing cloth is designed for plated pieces, so restore your jewelry’s true radiance to finish.

How to clean a mesh bracelet

Mesh bracelets can gather oil and dirt easily, so it's important to clean them thoroughly to keep them shiny. Soak a mesh bracelet in our gentle Pandora cleaning solution for a few minutes, remove it, and pat it dry with a cloth. Use the small brush to dislodge any dirt or debris that might have gathered in the mesh, and polish it with a polishing cloth.

How to clean tennis bracelets

Since each tennis bracelet is hand-finished with stones, they are delicate and require gentle cleaning. Our Pandora cleaning solution is kind to stones, so you can soak your tennis bracelet for a few minutes without harming lab-grown diamonds or cubic zirconia. Next, use a brush to clean around each stone gently, and polish with a polishing cloth.

How to clean leather bracelets

Leather bracelets can attract dust, dirt, and oil, so it's important to clean your bracelet so it looks its best. Wipe a leather bracelet with a dry cloth to remove dust, or use a damp cloth to remove surface-level dirt. Soaking a leather bracelet can damage the material, so spot clean with warm, soapy water for a more thorough clean.
