<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bronwen, post: 897286, member: 5833&quot;]Me too.&nbsp; Probably very gem-like originally.&nbsp; Don&#039;t know any way to permanently restore luster.&nbsp; When it comes to shell cameos that have become dulled, some people like to oil them; can&#039;t see that as the solution here.&nbsp; My only thought would be the mild formulation of a jewellery cleaning dip that also leaves a thin coating of something or other.&nbsp; Coating stays after rinsing off the liquid, unless your really wash it off &amp; seems to just fill in little surface scratches enough to brighten things up if that&#039;s the cause of dullness.&nbsp; I assume coating wears off after a bit if piece actively worn.</p><p><br /></p><p>The one I have around is Connoisseurs Jewelry Cleaner, delicate formula, supposed to be safe for pearls, opals &amp; costume jewellery.&nbsp; Not an endorsement over any other product, just the one I know.&nbsp; Have had no bad experiences with it &amp; have dunked more than one shell cameo in it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
