Cleaning Tips
When you first purchase your jewelry from us it maybe bright, brilliant and beautiful, but to keep it looking its best, it needs proper care and maintenance. This is especially important if you wear your jewelry every day. To keep daily build-ups of soap, cosmetics, and skin oils from dulling your beautiful jewelry, here are a few cleaning tips:
Professional Cleaning
This is the best option and also gives you the opportunity to have us check the stones in your mounting to make sure prongs or gallery work is not weak, broken or worn, and that all stones are tight. We offer this service to all of our customers free of charge. A cleaning and maintenance check every six months will make it easier for you to keep your jewelry clean yourself and help us keep you from any jewelry tragedies.
Cold Water Soak
A mixture of half cold water and household ammonia will work well if your ring or diamond jewelry is allowed to soak for 30 minutes. Lift your ring out and clean gently around the front and back of the mounting with a small, very soft brush. Give the ring a second swish through the solution and let dry on a paper towel. No rinsing is necessary.
Over-the-counter Jewelry Cleaners
A good cleaner is designed to remove loose dirt and dissolve any oils or residue on the stone. Ask us for our liquid jewelry cleaner made especially especially for diamonds. Please remember to follow the instructions on the label.
Detergent Bath
The simplest cleaning method for your diamond is to soak your jewelry in a small bowl of warm, sudsy water combined with any mild liquid detergent. Use a toothbrush or other soft brush and gently brush the ring around the setting while it is in the water. After its bath, put the ring in a fine wire strainer and rinse thoroughly under warm running water (the strainer provides protection for the ring from slipping down the drain). Pat your ring dry with a soft lint-free cloth.
Ultrasonic Cleaner
Our customers will tell you that we are a different kind of jewelry store. Our focus has always been on the needs and wants of the customer. As a full service jewelry store we put fine craftsmanship and exquisite quality at your disposal. We provide many services that other stores have to send your jewelry out to have done. Design, manufacture, repairs and appraisals are all done on the premises so that you know that when you leave your jewelry you can speak directly to the individual working on it.
