[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 2468146, member: 2844"]On the subject of cleaning cameos, I found a tiny but very dirty helmet shell cameo in a box which housed an Art Deco brooch.:jawdrop: It is about the size of a little finger nail. I soaked it in soapy water for about half an hour, but there is still some gunk left in the curly hair. I tried to get it out with one of those rubbery toothpicks, but that was too big. Can I soak it longer, and if so, how long for? Anything else I can do? I am sure you can advise me perfectly.:)[/QUOTE]
