Caring For Your Diamond
1. When not wearing precious jewelry, keep
it in an appropriate soft lined jewelry case.
2. Natural skin oils, lotions, perfume and hair spray can
diminish the beauty of your diamond.
3. Use a commercial jewelry cleaner or use a solution of cold
water and household ammonia (equal parts) to soak in for ½
hour. Use a soft, old toothbrush and gently work between the
prongs and underneath your diamond. Rinse in water and let
dry on tissue paper.
4. Bring your diamond to a jeweler to make sure the settings
are secure once every year or two (we do this once a year
and he cleans it for us too!).
5. Have your diamond appraised by a qualified jeweler. Be
sure to tell your jeweler that your appraisal is for insurance
purposes (and not estate purposes). It should be appraised
for retail replacement cost.
