Taking Care Of Your Engagement Ring

When it comes to your precious diamond jewellery, proper care and maintenance are essential to ensure its longevity and brilliance. Diamonds are known for their durability, but they still require attention to keep them looking their best. In this article, we will discuss some important dos and don'ts to help you take care of your diamond jewellery and prevent any damage.

Do: Regularly Clean Your Diamond Jewellery

Regular cleaning is crucial to maintain the sparkle and shine of your diamond jewellery. When you purchase an Appleby engagement ring, we offer lifetime complimentary cleaning. This routine will remove dirt, oils, and other residues that can dull the brilliance of your diamonds.

Don't: Expose Your Diamonds to Harsh Chemicals

Avoid exposing your diamond jewellery to harsh chemicals, as they can damage the stones and metal settings. Chemicals such as chlorine, bleach, and household cleaners can erode the metal and affect the clarity of your diamonds. It's best to remove your jewellery before swimming, cleaning, or using any chemical products.

Do: Store Your Diamond Jewellery Properly

Proper storage is essential to prevent scratches and damage to your diamond jewellery. When you're not wearing your pieces, store them in a soft pouch or a separate compartment in a jewellery box to avoid contact with other jewellery. Diamonds are the hardest gemstones, but they can still scratch other diamonds or gemstones. We recommended leaving it in your Appleby Ring Box when you're doing household cleaning, or using any chemicals.

Don't: Wear Your Diamonds During Physical Activities

Avoid wearing your diamond jewellery during physical activities, such as going to the gym, exercising, playing sports, or doing household chores. While diamonds are durable, they can still chip or break if subjected to extreme force or impact. It's best to remove your jewellery and keep it in a safe place during these activities.

Do: Get Your Diamond Jewellery Inspected

Regular professional inspections are recommended at Applebys to ensure the security of your diamond settings and to detect any potential issues. Our expert team of in-house gemologists will check for loose stones, worn prongs, or any other signs of damage. They can also provide professional cleaning and polishing to restore the brilliance of your diamonds.

Don't: Forget to Insure Your Diamond Jewellery

Insuring your diamond jewellery is a wise decision to protect your investment. Accidents can happen, and losing or damaging your precious pieces can be devastating. Contact your insurance provider to discuss options for insuring your diamond jewellery against loss, theft, or damage.

By following these dos and don'ts, you can ensure that your diamond jewellery remains beautiful and radiant for years to come. Remember, proper care and maintenance are key to preserving the brilliance and value of your precious diamonds.
