Jade is an important part of traditional Chinese culture and a very popular work of art. However, jade is susceptible to contamination and wear and tear during prolonged wear and storage, so it needs to be regularly maintained and cleaned. The following will be a detailed description of the maintenance and cleaning methods of jade.

Collision avoidance: Jade is fragile and prone to collision and breakage. Therefore, when wearing and storing jade, it is necessary to avoid contact with hard objects and avoid collisions.
Avoid direct sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause the surface of the jade to lose moisture, become dry and cracked. Therefore, when storing jade, to avoid direct sunlight, you can choose to store it in a cool and ventilated place.
Maintain humidity: Jade needs to maintain a certain amount of humidity to prevent drying and cracking. Some basins of water or wet towels can be placed in the place where the jade is stored to keep the air humid.
Avoid contact with chemicals: Chemicals such as perfumes and cosmetics can corrode the surface of jade, affecting its beauty and value. Therefore, when wearing and storing jade, avoid contact with chemicals.

Warm soapy water washing: Soak the jade in warm soapy water for about 20 minutes, then gently scrub the surface with a soft-bristled brush. After brushing, rinse with clean water and dry with a clean cloth.
Toothpaste cleaning: Squeeze an appropriate amount of toothpaste onto a soft-bristled brush, then gently scrub the surface of the jade. After brushing, rinse with clean water and dry with a clean cloth.
White vinegar cleaning: Dilute the white vinegar and soak the jade for about 30 minutes, then gently scrub the surface with a soft-bristled brush. After brushing, rinse with clean water and dry with a clean cloth.
Ultrasonic cleaning: Put the jade into the ultrasonic cleaning machine, add an appropriate amount of cleaning agent and water, and start the machine for cleaning. After washing, rinse with clean water and dry with a clean cloth.
It should be noted that the cleaning process should be handled gently to avoid damage to the jade. At the same time, it should be dried in time after cleaning to avoid water stains or discoloration on the surface of the jade.
In conclusion, the maintenance and cleaning of jade is an important part of maintaining its beauty and value.
