Jewelry can attract dirt and tarnish quite easily if not regularly cleaned. While there are many methods for cleaning jewelry, there are only a few correct ways to clean jewelry without damaging your pieces.
Jewelry such as Tacori diamond rings can be easily cleaned if done the correct way. First, make a solution containing a very mild detergent and water. Try using a dishwashing detergent that doesn’t contain ammonia or chlorine. Next, find a soft brush, such as a toothbrush, that will remove the dirt. You want a very soft brush so that the bristles don’t damage the metal setting on your diamond ring.
Soak the ring in the solution you made for about five minutes. Make sure to swirl it around so that the solution can get inside the dirty grimy areas. Once you soak it long enough, remove the ring and dry it with a washcloth. You may have to repeat this process a few times if the ring is especially dirty. This will then make the ring shine and you will be able to show it off to everyone.
Make sure you regularly clean your jewelry so that a dirt buildup doesn’t happen. If you are leery about cleaning your jewelry yourself, take the pieces to a jeweler in order for them to do a professional cleaning for you.
When storing jewelry, make sure you keep your jewelry and jewelry boxes away from excessive heat. Keep your pieces stored separately from each other so that they don’t tangle and snag. Keep jewelry away from perfumes, lotions and makeup, which can stain some of the stones that are in your rings. Always check your jewelry regularly to make sure that there are no loose stones, settings or clasps. If you find that one of your pieces is loose, immediately take it to a jeweler to fix the problem.
