Diamond Jewelry being precious on one hand and delicate on other needs special care. Taking good care of diamonds not only maintain a long life of your jewelry but also the pleasant effect on your personality. Better is if it’s stored in individual jewelry cases or cloth pouches, but more care can go for more benefits. Here’s a short list of DOs and DONTs for good care of your diamond jewelry.

• Cosmetics like lotions, soaps, perfumes and powders and hair sprays can affect the spark of the diamonds by leaving a film on them, so avoid keeping diamond jewelry near any of these.

• Another important thing to be noticed is to take off your diamond jewelry while participating in sports and swimming.

• One of the properties of diamonds is that it repels water but readily accepts wax and grease, so keep all such ingredients away from diamonds.

Taking care while cleaning the diamond jewelry:

• The diamond jewelry needs special care while getting cleaned and a better way is to soak the jewelry for a short while in a liquid dishwashing and then give it a mild and gentle scrubbing.

• Use a lint-free cloth to dry the diamond jewelry.

• There’s no need to get it cleaned very frequently, once in a single or two years is enough for its professional cleaning.

Though diamond is known as the hardest metal but delicate jewelry made of it can be ruined even with a little change in day-to-day activities, and taking care of such dainties increases its life and your charm.
