Diamond Care

While diamonds are the hardest substance on earth, they are by no means indestructible. These precious gems require proper care and cleaning to keep them looking their best and protect them from loss or damage.

Diamonds are uniquely resistant to damage by heat or scratching; however, a diamond will scratch another diamond. Diamonds can also scratch other gems or jewelry especially soft ones like pearls. To prevent such scratches, jewelry should be separated in your jewelry box. You should also remove your jewelry before swimming, cleaning, doing rough work, or handling harmful chemicals.

It is important to visit a professional jeweler every six months to have your jewelry cleaned and checked. Diamond jewelry can acquire a buildup of dirt that diminishes its brightness. The setting should also be checked to make sure all stones are secure.

Your diamond jewelry can be cleaned at home between professional checks using warm soapy water and a soft toothbrush. Items should be rinsed thoroughly and dried with a clean, soft cloth.

With proper care, your diamond jewelry will remain a beautiful treasure and last a lifetime.

To clean gold jewelry, wash it gently with a solution of warm water and detergent-free soap by gently scrubbing it with a soft-bristled brush.
