PRODUCT INFORMATION
How do I take care of my gold jewelry?
Preventive Steps
- Make sure to remove your jewelry when just washing your hands. Soap can leave your gold jewelry with a dull finish little by little and eventually, it becomes harder to clean when soap suds have already built up.
- Store your gold jewelry properly and separately or in compartments to avoid them from scratching each other. You may add a packet of silica gel inside the usual jewelry box so it absorbs any moisture in the box.
If your gold jewelry eventually looks dull after a long time of use, you can bring it to us or a trusted jeweler so your piece can be thoroughly cleaned by an expert. You do not want to use a store bought jewelry cleaner and end up damaging your precious piece instead of cleaning it. Your jeweler is the best person to give you advice on what to use for cleaning your piece.
How should I take care of my diamonds?
Keeping your diamonds clean will allow you to enjoy your diamonds full sparkle and brilliance. Diamonds have an odd trait; they repel water and attract oils like baking goods or makeup. Everyday wear can cause your diamond to look dull and even smaller. Avoid wearing your diamond jewelry during heavy or laborious activities, because although diamonds are the strongest substances they can be chipped, or the jewelry holding the diamonds can be damaged. Also, diamonds can be scratched by other diamonds, try to avoid having them jumbled up together in a jewelry box – keeping them tidy will help. Here are a few tips on keeping your diamond jewelry clean.
Professional Cleaning
Every six months take your ring to an established jeweler or bring to our store and have your ring cleaned and polished. When you have a professional jeweler do this they will inspect your diamond and the mounting to ensure that it has not been chipped or become loose.
Mild Liquid Detergent Soak
Get a small bowl or cup and fill it with warm water and a small amount of mild liquid detergent. With the sudsy water ready, soak your jewelry for about hour, this will break up any dirt and grime on your jewelry. When it is done soaking, take a soft toothbrush and gently scrub your jewelry. After, rinse your jewelry under warm water. Dry with a soft cloth, free of lint. Remember; plug the drain before you begin to ensure your jewelry does not fall down the drain.
