Storage
It is best to store your diamond jewelry
separately. We suggest individual jewelry cases, cloth pouches,
or a fabric-lined jewelry box with separate dividers and compartments.
Your diamonds and jewelry may become scratched or damaged when
not stored properly and when allowed to contact other jewelry.
Cleaning
Lotions, soaps, powders, perfumes, and hair
spray are great hindrances to beautiful and sparkling jewelry.
Be sure your skin is free from these or other products prior to
putting on your jewelry. From time to time you may want to clean
your diamond jewelry at home. Contrary to popular belief, toothpaste
is not recommended. The abrasives present in toothpaste will subtly
dull the metal of your setting.
It is best to prepare a solution of 1 part ammonia (or Mr. Clean) to
4 parts warm water. Add a small amount of a mild liquid dishwashing soap.
Let your jewelry soak for approximately 10 minutes. Scrub the jewelry
gently with a new soft toothbrush that you will use for jewelry cleaning
only. Dip the jewelry in the solution repeatedly then rinse under warm-hot
tap water. Pat the jewelry dry with a lint-free cloth.
Extended Care
Jewelry should not be worn while participating
in sporting activities or heavy labor. Diamonds may be chipped by a hard
impact. Jewelry may be damaged or broken during strenuous activities.
Do not allow your gold jewelry to come in contact with harsh chemicals
such as chlorine and bleach. Remove your jewelry prior to entering a
swimming pool or hot tub. Repeated exposure to even small amounts of
these chemicals has a cumulative effect, causing gold to become brittle
and susceptible to breaks and prong failure.
Inspections
Have your jewelry professionally inspected at least
once a year. Your jewelry should be checked for loose stones, bent prongs,
or signs of wear. It is a good idea to have your jewelry professionally
cleaned at the time of inspection.
