Prevention

The best way to keep your diamond ring clean it to prevent it from getting dirty! Makes sense, right? First things first, learn when to wear and when not to wear your diamond ring. Exercising? Take that ring off. Sleeping? Remove your ring. Cleaning the dishes? Take it off! You get the idea. If you’re doing something that could potentially damage or make your ring dirty, be proactive and just take your diamond ring off.

Storage

Another thing you can do to keep your diamond ring in tip top shape is storing it in a proper place. That’s right, the storage off your ring can protect your diamond ring from damage and dirt. We recommend an individual ring box for your diamond ring. If you’re using a large jewelry box to store your jewelry, opt for something with individual slots. If that’s not an option, try wrapping your diamond ring in a soft cloth before placing it in the box.

Cleaning

Despite our best efforts, it’s impossible to keep your diamond ring sparkling forever - even if you are careful with it. That’s why we’ve got some tips for how to clean your diamond ring.

Got something stuck in your diamond ring? Try carefully using tweezers or a soft bristled toothbrush to dislodge it. You could also try using a can of air.

When you want to give your diamond ring some more sparkle you can use a cleaning solution. There are many products you can purchase to do this. If you’re looking for a simple DIY project, try mixing warm water with dish soap and soaking your ring for 20-30 minutes. You can let it air dry or dry it with a soft cloth when it’s done.

If all else fails, it’s time to consult a professional jeweler. They have the experience to safely clean your diamond ring and bring it back to all it’s glory.

Maintenance

How often should you be cleaning your diamond ring? Is there such a thing as cleaning it too often? Yes and no. For general maintenance, to keep your ring sparkling and reduce germs, a good rule of thumb is to clean it every two weeks. Of course, if your ring gets especially dirty, you should clean your ring as necessary.

Now that you know how to clean your diamond ring, get cleaning! We all know there is nothing better than a sparkly diamond!
