How to Care and Clean your jewelry

Diamonds may be the hardest substance known to man, but they still can be damaged, abraded or scratched. Use the following guidelines to ensure your diamond jewelry retains its beauty for years to come:

Don’t store your diamond jewelry with other pieces, because diamonds, can scratch other jewelry and each other.

Keep your diamond jewelry in a fabric-lined jewel case or in a box with compartments or dividers.

Don’t wear your diamonds when doing rough work. Even though a diamond is durable, a hard blow can damage it.

Diamonds look best when they are clean, revealing the diamond’s fire and brilliance. Clean your diamonds regularly using commercial jewelry cleaner, a mix of ammonia and water, or a mild detergent. Dip the jewelry into the solution, and use a soft brush to dislodge dust of dirt from under the setting.

Keep diamond jewelry away from chlorine bleach or other chemicals that can pit or discolor the mounting. Do not wear your diamond jewelry in chlorinated pools or hot tubs.

See you professional jeweler a least once a year to have you diamond jewelry professionally cleaned and checked from loose prongs and wear.
