The cause is probably dirt trapped behind the stones. Earrings are very susceptible to excess skin oils, styling product build up, and the like due to their location on the body. To restore sparkle, soak your earrings in liquid jewelry cleaner to loosen grime both on the surface of the gems, and behind the stones - where dirt accumulates in the setting. After a good long soak use the soft brush supplied with the cleaner and not only scrub the surface of the gems, but poke the bristles down into the setting behind the gems. You won´t believe the difference!
