Restoring blackening on anodized 14k ring

I bought a ring that had been anodized to make the gold look black. I used a silver cleaner and it turned gold brassy color. What can restore the gold look? Can an anodized gold 14k white originally be restored? this dome ring has 3.6 k of diamonds that were set in it upside down as well/

This is a project you should take to a good jeweler.
