    Hi everyone, I am working on a pair of 22k earring set with faceted
    peridots. I put them into my pickle pot for a few minutes after I
    had set the stones to give them a brighter gold color and when I took
    them out the stones appeared to be dul l and had lost their sparkle.
    Has this happened to anyone else? Can anything be done to fix this
    disaster? 

    Thanks for any help. By the way I always enjoy reading everyone's
    postings and have learned much.
