How to Care for Your Diamond Jewelry and Keep It Sparkling

Diamond jewelry is a timeless investment that deserves proper care to maintain its brilliance. Whether it’s an engagement ring, necklace, or bracelet, regular maintenance ensures your diamonds stay as dazzling as the day you got them. In this guide, Fame Diamonds will walk you through expert tips to keep your jewelry in pristine condition.

1. Clean Your Diamond Jewelry Regularly

Diamonds attract oil, dirt, and residue from lotions, perfumes, and everyday wear. To keep them sparkling:

• DIY Cleaning: Mix warm water with mild dish soap and soak your jewelry for 15–20 minutes. Use a soft toothbrush to remove buildup and rinse with clean water.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Never use bleach or abrasive cleaners as they can damage the metal settings.
• Professional Cleaning: Visit Fame Diamonds for a professional ultrasonic cleaning to restore your diamond’s brilliance.

2. Store Your Jewelry Properly

Proper storage prevents scratches and damage:

• Keep diamond pieces separate in soft-lined jewelry boxes or pouches.
• Use individual compartments to avoid scratches from other gemstones and metals.
• Avoid exposing diamonds to extreme temperatures or direct sunlight for long periods.

3. Handle with Care

When wearing and removing your jewelry:

• Avoid touching the diamond directly to prevent oil buildup from your fingers.
• Remove jewelry before activities like swimming, exercising, or household chores.
• Put on jewelry after applying perfumes, lotions, and hairspray to avoid residue buildup.

4. Schedule Regular Inspections

Over time, diamond settings can loosen, and prongs may wear down. To prevent losing your precious stones:

• Bring your jewelry to Fame Diamonds for an inspection at least once a year.
• Our experts will check for loose settings, worn prongs, and any potential repairs needed.
• We also offer professional polishing services to restore your jewelry’s original shine.

5. Protect Your Diamond Jewelry

To ensure your investment remains secure:

• Get your jewelry insured for added protection in case of loss or damage.
• Keep a record of your jewelry's details, including receipts, appraisals, and certifications.
• Consider wearing alternative jewelry for daily use to extend the life of your most valuable pieces.
