    I've had good success with a hand full of baking soda and a few
    drops of water to form a very thick paste.  I draw the liguid silver
    through my hand full of baking soda a couple of times then rub the
    necklace using both hands.  Then rinse off the baking soda.  Do this
    over the sink as it is messy.  I don't believe baking soda will
    scratch the stones you mentioned.
