How does it feel if your precious stone-studded ring gets chipped off due to sheer carelessness? Woeful, I guess! Be it diamonds or gemstones, every jewelry piece needs proper handling and care.
Some Basic Jewelry Care Tips
- Clean diamonds using a mild solution of six parts water and one part ammonia with a soft bristle
- Clean and re-string your pearl necklace professionally once a year. In between, you can use a damp cloth to wipe them
- Do not go for ultrasonic cleaning for gemstone cleaning
- Do not expose gold jewelry to household bleach
- Products containing sulphur can tarnish sterling silver
- Store jewelry in protective or tarnish-resistant box
- Avoid stacking your handcrafted rings, earrings and bracelets in one box so as to prevent scratch and abrasion
- Avoid wearing your precious jewelry during activities which expose it to risks
