The Complete Guide to Jewellery Care: Simple At-Home Cleaning Tips and Professional Deep-Cleaning Advice

After carefully choosing a beloved diamond or a diamond eternity ring for everyday wear, daily cleaning and care become essential to maintaining its brilliance. Many people assume that because diamonds are so hard, they can’t get dirty, but in reality, everyday oils, hand cream, and dust build up underneath the stone, blocking light refraction and dulling its sparkle. This article shares simple at-home cleaning tips, and explains when it’s time for professional care.

4 Simple Steps for At-Home Cleaning

It only takes a few minutes to restore your diamond’s brand-new sparkle:

1. Mix a warm-water solution: Fill a small bowl with warm water and add a few drops of a mild, neutral washing-up liquid.
2. Soak gently: Soak your ring or jewellery for about 10 to 15 minutes to soften oils and grime. You can also refer to our everyday jewellery care guide.
3. Brush softly: Use a soft baby toothbrush to gently brush the back and prongs of the diamond, where oil residue tends to build up most.
4. Rinse and dry: Rinse thoroughly with warm water, then dry with a soft, lint-free cloth or a hairdryer on the cool setting.

The Importance of Professional Deep-Cleaning

Alongside at-home cleaning, it’s recommended to bring your jewellery back to the counter for professional care every six months to a year.

• Check prong tightness: A jewellery consultant will use a professional loupe to inspect the metal prongs for wear or looseness, preventing the risk of the centre stone falling out. You can browse our after-sales care and repair service details.
• Ultrasonic and steam cleaning: Professional equipment thoroughly removes deep grime that is invisible to the naked eye, restoring the diamond’s ultimate brilliance.
