Tips to Clean Your Diamond Jewelry and Wedding Sets



Having invested a lot of time and money in your diamond jewelry, it is very important that you maintain it well enough to have it sparkling life long. This is more so when it comes to your diamond ring that is worn on a daily basis and gets exposed to various chemicals you use and to the oil in your skin, which is why it requires additional care and regular cleaning. Nevertheless, if you do not know how to clean and maintain your wedding sets, you may always opt for professional help like those at Midwest Jewellery, who sell the most affordable diamond  jewelry and wedding sets in a wide range of design options.

In case you would like to take the DIY approach, here are some tips to clean your diamond jewelry:

  • To start with, you will require certain tools to clean your diamond jewelry. So, find a toothbrush with a soft bristle, a bowl or dish, very mild ammonia or a good commercial cleaning solution specific to diamond jewelry, a soft cloth, tweezers, and a bowl of fresh water.
  • The area where you propose to clean and put your diamond jewelry should be a plain surface with adequate light to clean the crevices and nooks of your jewelry. Make sure that there is no drain, sink, or heave breeze in the area you choose to clean. This is to safeguard your precious jewelry from getting washed away or lost.
  • The first step of cleaning the beautiful diamond wedding sets is to remove the visible dirt and presoak them in the mild solution. You may also carefully rinse them under running water with a huge bowl placed over the drain.
  • Scrub the jewelry gently at various angles with the soft bristles of the brush, and try to reach out to the deepest curves.
  • Dry out the jewels with the clean soft cloth that has no lint. You may slightly rub it to give your precious jewelry a polished finish.
Despite all your efforts in cleaning your jewelry, certain metals do require an occasional polishing from skilled jewelry experts like those working at MidWest Jewellery to make them as new as they were the first time you bought them.
