You have two options:

It’s really quite simple. Don’t be tempted to reach for any fancy products as this could potentially damage the intense black colour of the stone. Simply use lukewarm water to clean and then dry with a soft cloth. By using this cleaning method regularly, the beauty of Whitby Jet will shine all year round. Remember all gemstones are different and should be cleaned in a way that is suitable for their composition. Do not treat all gems the same as they all have unique physical properties, which need to be looked after slightly differently.
