Cleaning China?

[Rick L]

Hi
Ive been finding china a cup and plates off the isles of shoals nh.
Is there a good way to clean them?
I find lots of broken china should I take these too(ive only taken unbroken stuff)
Ive been able to look up the markings looks like 1860s
should I clean them?
Or leave them with the found in the ocean look?

DONT LET IT DRY OUT !

Put them in the top tank of your toilet for a fresh water rinse. It is a constantly changing supply of fresh water. Let them soak for 12 months.

Put your stuff in your toilet tank, soak it for a couple of days, then start cleaning it. Most of the time it will clean up easier if you don't let it dry out before you try to clean it.

Cleaning it while your in the soaking period, also allows you to clean in your spare time.
