How to get crystal/semi precious beads polished?

[Cina_s]

Not sure if any one here might be able to help or where to put this post.

I know these arent gem quality that is set into rings as most PSers are collecting. But..see the beaded bracelets on my avatar? Some I've had for a long time. Some I've even spent a shocking amount in for a beaded bracelet. But almost all have developed a sign of wear and tear - a ring around the bead where its furthest from the center threading hole. But I really do love wearing them and wouldnt want to part with them.

I dont think I can "polish" them with a cloth.

Wear and tear banding has happened lovely carnelian (which was expected as they are super soft) to even my tourmaline ones (which is more surprising as it's a harder stone.

Rock tumbler? Will that work on beads? will they become more damaged?
