<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 868363, member: 5833"]Hope some others will weigh in, because not my area of expertise. Anyway, I would start by simply giving it a good long soak in water with a little dish washing liquid & then have at it with a soft toothbrush to see what will come off easily, with special attention to the stone. Think my next move would be a test rub on the back with a tarnish removing cloth. If results were promising, I'd start bringing up details on the front. If it has been artificially patinated, don't know what to suggest.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
