Adornments Maintenance

Precious jewellery needs precious care

If your jewellery begins to lose its sheen, it possibly needs careful cleaning. Diamonds, in particular, have a natural affinity for grease and ideally need to be cleaned everyday.

Sit down to clean your jewelry in a place where you are unlikely to lose an important piece. Do not expose your precious gemstone pieces to salt water and harsh chemicals such as chlorine or detergents. Diamond stones can be cleaned with ammonia and warm water, but not if pearls are in the same setting. Use of hair spray and perfume may cause the jewelry to become dull. Different pieces of jewelry require different techniques of clearing.
