Diamond Jewelry Care

Because diamond is the hardest known substance you must be careful when storing your diamond jewelry, as it can scratch other gemstones and metals. Store diamond jewelry separately in a cloth pouch.

Avoid salt water and harsh chemicals and detergents when wearing your diamond jewelry. As much as possible try to keep your diamonds free of perspiration, dirt, cosmetics, and hair spray. (You can bathe while wearing gold without causing harm. Ordinary soap, however, can dull it).

Always put on jewelry after you have applied cosmetics, perfumes, after-shaves, hairsprays, etc

Remove all jewelry before engaging in such activities as sports, housework or yard work where jewelry is prone to impacts and/or chemicals.

Check for loose gems and clasps before each wear.

Pearl and bead necklaces should be restrung at least every two years, annually if you wear them frequently.

Wipe your jewelry off before each wear

Always insure your jewelry.

Clean your jewelry at your trusted local jeweler every six months. Use this opportunity to ensure that your gemstones are secure.
