Should I wear diamonds every day? Should I clean them with soap? Should I take diamond jewelry off when I take shower? These are the most popular questions. And in this article, we have answered them all.
1. You need to clean your diamond ring or earring regularly.
Yes, we need to do it at least once in two weeks. The cleaning doesn’t demand much time: just put your diamond jewelry in the mug with water and soap for five minutes. Then gently scrub the stone and halo-basket with a soft toothbrush for babies, rinse it, and pat dry. Try not to touch the diamond with your fingers after drying. Try not to touch the diamond with your fingers after drying and do not use a fluffy cloth.
2. Diamonds can be easily damaged.
Do not believe such stories as that diamonds are the most solid stones and they cannot be damaged. It is a myth. Diamonds can still fracture, bruise, and chip despite the fact they are the hardest natural gemstone in the world. Yes, you need a very hard kick to do some serious damage but still, it is better to be more careful with your diamond bracelet or engagement ring.
3. Take off your ring when...
...you are going swimming. In salty water, our body has the ability to change its size. That is why there is a risk of losing your ring underwater. On the other side, women care even too much putting the engagement ring off every time when washing their hands. “But so many brides end up washing their hands in a restaurant and leaving the ring behind”, says Daniela Balzano-Hull, the New York store director for De Beers, in the interview for Vogue. If you go showering, let the diamond rest. It will keep its beauty for a longer time. There is also another piece of advice: if you have a delicate ring with micro pavé stones, avoid wearing it when playing tennis or other kinds of sport. The stones tend to pop out easily. What about sleeping with your diamonds - it’s up to you.
4. When buying a ring, get the insurance too.
We highly recommend before leaving the jewelry store, make sure that your diamond is insured. In that case, you can always go to the store and require the exchange or repair free of charge. If you bought a jewelry gift in an online store, then usually they offer free insurance. For example, YB Soul Jewelry Company each diamond product is insured, so you can be sure that your purchase is real and will be carefully delivered.
5. Keep an eye on the prong and setting of your diamond jewelry.
Jewelers highly recommend checking the prong setting of your engagement ring in order to avoid losing small diamonds. Check your diamond item every night before sleep. Shake it easily near the ear and if you hear something, bring it to the jeweler.
6. Have a special place for keeping your diamond jewelry.
Or even several such places and ring dishes around the house. It is helpful when you have suddenly decided to put the ring off. Heve some small boxes in the kitchen so you can easily put the diamond off and start cleaning the house. Keep the diamond in its original box, or in a special jewelry bag. The jewelry box will become a great accomplishment for your home decor.
