Fine Jewellery care instructions
Diamonds are renowned for their timeless beauty and brilliance, making them a popular choice for engagement rings, wedding bands, and other cherished jewelry. To keep your diamonds looking their best, proper care is paramount to preserve their splendor. Delve into our essential diamond cleaning care guide where our jewelry experts answer your questions and ensure your diamonds remain radiant for a lifetime of luxury.
How often should I clean my diamond jewelry?
Regular cleaning is vital to maintain the sparkle of your diamonds. We recommend cleaning them at least once a month, or more frequently if they come into contact with lotions, oils, or other substances that can dull their shine.
What's the best way to clean my diamond jewelry at home?
For at-home diamond jewelry cleaning, use a soft bristle toothbrush and a pea-sized amount of dish soap under warm water. The toothbrush will help remove dirt from hard-to-reach areas. Gently scrub the diamonds and their settings, then rinse with clean water and pat dry using a lint-free cloth.
Prior to cleaning your jewelry, we recommend you check for loose diamonds to avoid any accidental loss down the drain. If you notice any movement or spinning of diamonds in their settings, it's advisable to schedule an inspection with your jeweler.
Should I seek professional cleaning for my diamonds?
At Raaya Gem & Jewellers, we advise all customers on the importance of annual cleaning and inspections to ensure the long-term care of their jewelry. Professional cleaning and inspection by a qualified jeweler are essential as experts can identify loose settings, potential damage, or wear and tear that may require repair. Aim for professional maintenance at least once a year to maintain the quality and spark of your diamond.
Can I wear my diamond jewelry during sports or rough activities?
It's best to remove your diamond jewelry during strenuous or rough activities. Diamonds are durable but not indestructible, and they can get damaged or even lost during high-impact activities.
Are there any chemicals or environments to avoid with diamond jewelry?
Avoid exposing your diamonds to chlorinated pools and hot tubs, as the chemicals can harm the metal and settings. Additionally, refrain from touching your diamonds with your fingers as oils and smudges can affect their brilliance.
Caring for your diamond jewelry is a simple yet crucial task that ensures your precious gems retain their luster and value over time. Regular cleaning, proper storage, professional maintenance, and mindful wear are key to keeping your diamonds looking as radiant as the day you first received them. By following these guidelines, you'll enjoy the enduring beauty of your diamonds for generations to come.
