The diamond jewelry care tips below will help you maintain your precious pieces, ensuring the timeless brilliance of your diamonds and reflecting your grace for time to come.
Avoid direct contact with lotions, perfumes and cosmetics. Take off jewelry during household chores, swimming, and gym workouts. Avoid touching the center stone; it prevents oils and fingerprints from accumulating and dulling its shine. While taking off rings, do not use excessive force. Gently twist the ring and pull it off.
Home cleaning tips Clean gently with mild soap and lukewarm detergent. Use a soft-bristled brush. Dry with a lint-free cloth. Professional cleaning and servicing After a year of two of wear, consider professional inspection and maintenance. Ultrasonic and steam cleaning methods used by professionals are especially beneficial in removing dust and debris that daily cleaning might not be able to clean.
The best storage options for your jewelry are fabric-lined boxes, soft pouches or storage with individual compartments. Keep diamonds separate to prevent scratches. Anti-tarnish strips are good for protecting metals. Use those while storing.
Getting jewelry insurance is a smart move; it provides financial coverage from theft, damage or loss. Get regular, professional prong and setting inspections done prevents stone loss from your jewelry. Take care to understand warranties and care policies in depth. They will help you in redressal if at all the need arises.
The way in which your diamonds are set, such as solitaire, pave or halo, are as special as your diamond jewelry piece; they need extra caution. Solitaires usually are easier to maintain as there is just one stone set in a simpler design. Pave or halo settings feature a larger central diamond surrounded by smaller ones. They are more delicate, and need more careful handling and professional cleaning. Also, losing or damaging the smaller stones is more likely in these settings.
Bracelets usually experience a lot of movement. Check the clasps and links frequently to ensure they are secure. Store them flat in a padded box or pouch. Wear necklaces after applying perfumes, hairsprays or lotions. This prevents build-up on the diamonds which can get difficult to clean. Store them separately to avoid scratching from other pieces. Wipe after each use to remove natural oils and residue from skin. Always ensure the backs are secure before wearing. Avoid sleeping with your diamond earrings on, as they can bend or break.
Use a jewelry care with separate compartments. Store individually, wrapped in a soft cloth to avoid friction. Carry only your essential pieces to reduce risk of loss or theft. Always carry your jewelry in your carry-on luggage, never in check-in baggage. Use the hotel safe for storage to keep your jewelry when not wearing it. Finally, when it doubt, leave it out. Especially when visiting high-risk areas or activities.
Diamonds are indestructible. They are the hardest natural material, but are not unbreakable. A sharp blow or a drop can chip a diamond along the edges and corners. Toothpaste is a good diamond cleaner. Toothpaste contains abrasives that can scratch metal settings and damage gemstones. Better leave it for your teeth. You can wear diamonds 24/7 Constant wear exposes your diamond jewelry to dirt, oils and impact. Keep them off while sleeping. Ultrasonic cleaners are always safe. While they may work for some diamonds, ultrasonic cleaner can loosen and even damage intricate settings like pave.
