Hello,
I'm a fairly new rock hound, and I was wondering if someone could tell me the best way to clean peridot? I have several small pieces I picked up, that would be really pretty if they didn't have brownish stains on them. I've used super iron out on my aquas, smokies, and amethyst, but I want sure if it would hurt the peridot. Anyone tried it before? Or should I try vinegar first? |
