Can you explain what your jewelry is set in and how large it is? Would you be able to have it in water? Then if it's made of sterling silver and not too big you can try those cleaning plates or if you have an aluminum pan or pot and Spic and Span, pour about an inch of hot water into the bottom of the pot. Sprinkle in about a half teaspoon of the powder. Swish the water to mix in the crystals, place the jewelry in the bottom of the pot for no more than 1 minute. The tarnish should disappear (it's an electroplating trick.) Remove your jewelry and wash off the soapy water and dry completely. This works for any silver objects. Great for cutlery!

I used Hagerty silver cleaner for mine - turned out great.
I use a silver cleaning cloth and leave a bit of the tarnish still there. I like the antique appearance.
Usually marcasite is set in sterling silver, so I use a silver polishing cloth. Works dandy.
