How to Clean Diamond Jewellery: Do’s and Don’ts

They say, diamonds are forever. While they are more durable than other precious gemstones, it doesn’t mean they don’t need extra care. Don’t we all recall our grandmothers taking out jewellery from the closet every few months and delicately cleaning every inch of it?

Today, pieces like diamond earrings and rings are worn more regularly, which means they need more attention to sparkle all year round. For instance, when we apply sunscreen or other cosmetics, some residue is always left behind, which collects around the earrings. You may not realise it but the grime covers the piercing and dims its sheen in the long run. 

So, how do you clean diamond jewellery at home?

Steps to clean diamond jewellery at home

You must have a few things handy before you clean diamond jewellery at home:

The steps given below applyto everything from diamond earrings to studs oreven solitaire diamond rings:

• Put the diamond jewellery in a bowl of warm water, placing it on a surface that isn’t uneven. Let it soak for a few minutes.

• Next, add some unscented liquid soap inside the bowl. Dishwasher soup can also be used to clean diamond jewellery.

• Wash the diamond jewellery with soap water. You will notice that the dirt starts coming off. Now, leave the earrings inside the bowl for half an hour for the grime to settle.

• Remove the diamond jewellery from the bowl and rinse them with clean water. Use a soft cloth to wipe the pair properly.

• If you spot more dust or dirt on the jewellery, use a soft toothbrush and clean the area.

If you use your diamond jewellery regularly, a cleaning every two weeks is ideal. For pieces that you wear rarely, once a month works.
