How to care for your diamond jewelry

Info

Buying diamond jewelry is an easy task but taking care of it and maintaining its sparkle for a lifetime is quite a challenging task. A person won’t think twice before replacing a torn out bag or cloth, but diamond jewelry is an entirely different story. There are few ways listed for a person as a guide towards proper care of their diamonds and avoid losing their sparkle. Here are some tips preferred by the best jewellers in Hatton Garden.

Regular cleaning of the diamond jewelry

Diamond jewelry needs regular cleaning and care for continuous sparkle and shine. Since diamond sparkles due to the light which passes through it, the surface has to be clean and free from dirt, oil, or sweat. So cleaning it regularly becomes quite important to maintain its shine. Cleaning the diamonds is not a heavy task; all that one need is some warm water, a soft toothbrush, and mild soap. Toothpaste should not be used. Firstly, one needs to soak the diamonds in soapy water and then gently clean it with a soft-bristled toothbrush. The back of the diamond should also be cleaned along with its face where a lot of dirt gets accumulated. And cleaning it, one can then dry the diamonds with a soft cloth. Chemicals should not be used in cleaning the diamonds because they can erode the metal prongs. It should be ideally cleaned once a fortnight.

Use a gentle touch

Diamonds should be held gently and softly regardless of its fact that it doesn’t break easily. The prongs holding the diamonds can be broken, so it is always safe to hold it gently and avoid rough usage. Even during cleaning the diamonds, extra care should be taken while scrubbing. One shouldn’t put too much pressure while cleaning and a soft brush are preferable over a hard one.

Store them carefully

Diamonds need to be stored individually and carefully. Not that it has to be protected only against being lost or stolen, but also against damages. If the diamonds are not stored separately from other diamonds then it might get scratched. And accordingly with other pieces of jewelry, which might get damaged when kept in contact with diamonds. Once the diamond gets damaged, the sparkle is lost forever. So to protect it from any damage or scratches, it’s better to store each piece of diamond separately. Even the use of a fabric-lined jewelry case is preferable which has separate compartments for all the jewelry. One can also wrap them separately in soft tissues.

Diamonds need periodic inspection

Taking care of the diamond stones are obvious, but keeping a regular check on the metal prongs holding them are also paramount. If one notices that the prongs are not of the same length if one is shorter than the others then the person should immediately take it to the jeweler to fix it. The flawless fine jewelry even cleans the diamonds and shines it up with an ultrasonic cleaner. An ultrasonic cleaner uses a vibrating fluid to clean the dirt. Even if the ring is loose to one’s fingers then also diamond can undergo a lot of damage.
