Care
Gold doesn't tarnish, and it doesn't mind the weather. Wash it in warm water with a drop of washing-up liquid, use a soft brush in the twists, the bark and the steps of the terrace band, and dry it with a soft cloth.
Rinse the dust out of the shofar's mouth and the flute's holes the same way and let them dry. Take rings off for lifting stones, fencing and tools. The lower karats are harder and shrug off knocks; 18k is softer and wears at its edges over the years, which is how good gold ages. Keep each piece in its own pouch.
