[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9601926, member: 2844"]It depends on the type of jewellery. Using a sunshine cloth is generally safe, it is dry and you rub the metal with it. Depends on how and where they are set. Could you show us a photo? If you don't feel safe posting photos on a public platform, you can start a thread in the General Discussion Forum, that is for members only. Yes.;) That depends on where in Europe. I live in The Netherlands, and wearing costume jewellery is no problem at all overhere. I usually wear silver or gold, which is quite normal here too. But I only wear expensive jewellery when the occasion calls for it, in a safe environment and minimum outside exposure. If I visit a country or city where you can't wear gold or silver, I don't. And when I was in Lima, Peru I didn't wear any jewellery at all, because I was warned beforehand that thieves wouldn't think twice about breaking your arm to get at your bracelet or ring. So you adjust to the environment you're in. Come to The Netherlands, we have a sizeable East Asian population, and no one sees them as a target.;) Over 10% 1st and 2nd generation Indonesian and Peranakan, and many more with (part)Asian roots, as well as other East Asians. I am part Indonesian, btw.[/QUOTE]
