Jewelry Care

A diamond will last forever but it is important to learn how to care for your diamond to ensure its brilliance. Professional cleaning is the best option and you should have your jewelry checked at least once a year to make sure prongs have not weakened. Although diamonds are the hardest substance known to man, a diamond will scratch another diamond and should not be stored together. Diamond jewelry should never be worn while doing heavy work.

 


Here are three easy ways to keep your diamonds clean between visits to the jewelers:

  • Detergent Bath - Prepare a small bowl of warm water with any mild liquid detergent used in the home. Gently brush the diamond jewelry with a soft toothbrush while it is in the suds. Then rinse each piece under warm running water. Pat dry with a soft, lint-free cloth. Make sure to always stopper your sink.

  • Cold Water Soak - In a small bowl, soak the jewelry in a half-and-half solution of cold water and household ammonia for 30 minutes. Lift out and gently tap around the front and back of the mounting with a small soft brush. Swish in the solution a second time, rinse and drain on tissue paper.

  • Quick Dip Method - Use any brand name liquid jewelry cleaner and follow the instruction given on the label.
