There is a famous saying about how diamonds are forever, but like any fine jewelry, they need a little love. Occasional cleaning or inspection will ensure the stability and beauty of the jewelry. However, it can also be everyday actions that can affect your jewelry.
"People often remove jewelry when washing dishes or doing gardening, but realistically there are other, often unexpected, ways that are more likely to cause harm," says Nicholas Rosset, co-owner of Savoy, with cousin Ryan Rosset.
Here are the top tips from Savoy Jewelers to ensure the longevity and shine of your jewelry.
Always apply makeup and hairspray before your jewelry.
Lacquer can put a film on jewelry that tarnishes the luster of metal or the brilliance of a diamond.
Remove all jewelry before settling in the hot tub or pool
Chlorine can break down the metals in the solder that hold your ring together.
Move your rings when you clap
If you clap at a concert or performance and your rings keep hitting each other, it can cause scratches and dents on the bands.
Pulling out the watch shaft does not save the battery
Pulling on the stem creates an opening for dust and moisture, which can penetrate the inner workings of a watch and ruin the movement. When you pull on the stem of your watch, you prevent the internal gears from moving. However, the battery continues to provide power to the watch.
Leave the opals out of the safe
Banks use dehumidifiers to reduce humidity and protect the paper. This drier air dries out the opals and causes them to crack.
Leave your jewelry at home when lifting heavy objects in the gym.
If you lift dumbbells, leave the rings at home. The metal bar can cause abrasions or dents on your rings.
If you don't know how to care for a gem, don't hesitate to ask, says Nicholas. And if something looks stained or there is a possibility of damage, contact your local jeweler for evaluation. Often parts can quickly regain their accustomed shine and shine.
"Usually we can clean and inspect your jewelry while you wait," says Nicholas. He adds that jewelry is an investment. Hence, it is important to hire a jeweler you trust and be comfortable asking as many questions as you need from buying to storing to selling. Cleaning.
