HOW TO CLEAN A DIAMOND RING

GUIDE TO HOW TO CLEAN A DIAMOND

It is quite common that, over time, daily wear exposes diamond rings to dirt, oils, and residue that can dull their sparkle. Regular cleaning helps to preserve diamonds’ radiance and ensures they remain a treasured piece for years to come. Gentle at-home methods can keep diamonds shining, but professional care is essential for deep cleaning and long-term maintenance. For those looking to restore their jewelry’s brilliance, Brockhaus Jewelry in Norman, Oklahoma, offers expert services that go beyond at-home methods. Understanding the best cleaning techniques will help maintain the beauty of your diamond jewelry for generations.

GENTLE CARE

There are several at home and money-savvy methods to keep your diamonds shimmering. For example, using warm water and mild soap is a simple yet effective way to clean a diamond ring. A soft-bristled brush can remove buildup from hard-to-reach places, while a lint-free cloth will gently dry the setting without scratching. Wiping jewelry daily after wearing helps prevent grime from accumulating, ensuring it stays sparkling longer. Removing rings before applying lotions, using cleaning products, or engaging in laborious activities will also help preserve their sparkle. For an extra layer of protection, storing diamond rings in a soft pouch or lined jewelry box prevents scratches and keeps them looking pristine.

PROFESSIONAL CARE

Even with regular cleaning, professional maintenance ensures a diamond ring stays secure and flawless. Over time, settings may loosen, and unseen buildup can diminish a diamond’s brilliance. A jeweler’s professional cleaning process removes deep-seated dirt, restoring the ring’s natural sparkle and can also warn you of potential loosening or breakage. At Brockhaus Jewelry we provide necessary jewelry repairs, inspections, and professional maintenance to keep your diamond jewelry brilliant and secure. It’s recommended to have diamond rings professionally inspected and cleaned every six months to a year, depending on frequency of wear. If a ring is exposed to heavy dirt or chemicals, more regular cleanings may be necessary.
