Jewelry Maintenance
The jewelry we wear on a daily basis has high decorative and emotional value. They are often our most precious assets. Therefore, good maintenance can effectively extend the service life of jewelry. Keep them shiny and valuable. Whether it is gold jewelry or diamond rings worn daily. Each piece needs careful care. Here are some professional jewelry maintenance tips for you to help your jewelry always look new.
Avoid contact with chemicals
Jewelry is often exposed to cosmetics, perfumes, detergents and other chemicals in daily life. These chemical components may cause damage to the surface of custom jewelry, especially for gold, silver and gemstones. Although gold jewelry is not easy to rust, if it comes into contact with chemicals such as cosmetics and hairspray, oxidation may occur on the surface. Affect the luster of the jewelry. For diamonds and other gemstone jewelry, such as jade, ruby, sapphire, etc., if they come into contact with chemicals, they may lose their luster or even cause permanent damage to some sensitive gemstones. If it is silver jewelry, it is particularly easy to react with sulfides in the air to form a black oxide layer on the surface. These are the reasons for jewelry damage. If you want to keep your jewelry shiny, you need to pay attention to, for example, take off your jewelry before using cosmetics, perfume, hairspray, etc. When cleaning housework, it is best to wear gloves, avoid jewelry from contact with detergents and disinfectants, and avoid placing jewelry in a humid environment for a long time. Prevent corrosion and oxidation
Clean jewelry regularly
The jewelry we usually wear is inevitably covered with dust, dirt and grease on the surface of the jewelry, which will not only affect its appearance, but also may affect its luster and brightness. The methods for jewelry of different materials are slightly different. If it is environmental and platinum jewelry, you can soak it in warm water and neutral soap solution, wipe it gently, and then wipe it dry with a soft cloth. Avoid using any abrasive cleaners to avoid scratching the surface. If it is diamonds and gemstones, use warm water and non-abrasive cleaners to clean it, and it is best to use a soft toothbrush to gently scrub it. The surface of diamonds is prone to grease accumulation, so just use clean water and a small amount of detergent to clean it. If it is silver jewelry, you can wipe it with a special cleaning cloth for silver jewelry, or use silver jewelry cleaning liquid to clean it. Regardless of the material, regular cleaning of jewelry helps maintain the luster of jewelry, especially jewelry that we wear frequently.
Professional jewelry maintenance and repair
If it is complicated and difficult to clean or if there is a problem with the jewelry, it is best to send it to a professional jewelry supplier or jewelry repair shop for inspection and repair as soon as possible to avoid small problems from becoming big. Especially for some high-value jewelry, such as custom ring, gold bracelets, etc., professional jewelry repair shops can not only provide professional cleaning, but also detect the inlay of gemstones, repair damaged parts, etc.
