Is it OK for your ultrasonic cleaner?

Pavé ring and halo

Yes
Check first
No

Many small stones set close together – let a jeweler check the setting first.

Updated from your answers.

A few questions to be sure

Does any stone move or rattle when you tap the piece lightly?
Are there stones in the piece?

How to do it

Time
3 min
Water
Lukewarm, 30–40 °C

Only after a check. 3 minutes, and look for empty holes afterwards.

With these answers we do not recommend the ultrasonic cleaner, so there is no how-to.

Pick your cleaner to see if it fits, which setting to use and what its manual says.

Why

GIA writes that ultrasound can wear the edges of stones set edge to edge and shake stones loose. Pavé stones are held by small metal beads that wear over the years.

Watch out for

  • If a stone is already missing: do not run it
  • Run the ring on its own
