Life can be hard on your jewelry, dirt and grime builds up spoils the gleam of your diamonds, even stored away dust and atmospheric particles conspire to make your diamonds dull.



Cleaning your diamonds will restore them to their full, sparkling brilliance, getting rid of the oils, dirt, hand lotion and everything else. Diamonds are made to shine.



Cleaning your diamonds is not hard work and a little effort will keep them shining like new. Think of the windows in your house, they shine when the light can pass through them, it's the same for diamonds. All it requires is a little love on your part.



Using a fine soft brush and some soapy water you can keep the brilliance alive. Make a bowl of warm water and washing up liquid and soak your jewelry for a short time. This will soften the ingrained dirt and make it easier to remove from the tiny crevices.



Whilst the diamonds are submerged use a soft brush to gently clean away any soiling, rub gently in all directions and for rings make sure to clean around the back of the stone if it is an open mount. If the diamonds are to dirty to clean in this way then you can make mixture of ammonia and water 1:1 solution to soak the diamonds for about twenty minutes, this should loosen even the toughest grime.



If you do not like the idea of mixing your own solution many jewelry stores will sell a specialist cleaning solution for your diamonds. If you do purchase such a kit then make sure it is for diamonds and read and adhere to the instructions fully. Follow any safety precautions to the letter and wear rubber gloves to protect your hands.



A twenty first century answer to cleaning your diamonds is to use an ultra sonic cleaning machine. This machine utilises sonic vibrations to literally shake the grime off. These machines work in different ways so always read the instructions.



Now that you have brilliant, dazzling diamonds again keep them clean by carefully rubbing them with a lint free cloth like a spectacles cloth and when you are not wearing them store them in airtight box to keep the dust out.

Okay, you finally found the perfect diamond ring, earrings or necklace. Now, you need to keep that piece looking as great as it did when you received it.

Probably just tossing your diamonds into a jewelry box is not the greatest idea in the world. It is really heartbreaking to find that beautiful diamond chipped because it was knocked against another diamond in your jewelry box. Sure a diamond is the hardest natural substance on Planet Earth but knock two of them together and something's gotta give. And normally it is a piece of one of the diamonds, or if you are unlucky like I was, both diamonds chip! If you don't have a jewelry box that has the little slots to store your rings in, then put each ring, earring or necklace into a cloth pouch. It takes up more space but if it will save just one of your stones it is worth it!

There is nothing sadder than a diamond without a sparkle and that is so easy to fix. Skin oil, body and hand creams, and just plain dirt (yes, some of us really do forgot to take off our rings when we dig in our gardens and do all the other things that get your hands dirty and well the sad news is your rings get dirty too, just like your hands!) I have been known to forget to take off my rings when I made bread, now that is a real mess to clean. But clean is possible and relatively easy. A little dish soap and water and if needs be an old toothbrush will clean all the gunk from around the stone and shine it up like new! Once in a great while (and I've only had to do it once) the sparkle and shine just is hard to find. Use a weak solution of ammonia and water - I use 2 tablespoons of ammonia to 1/2 cup of water and that old soft toothbrush to get down between the crevices around the stone or stones. Don't be overzealous in your cleaning as you can scratch the gold or silver! Once you've cleaned your rings, necklaces, and earrings just let them air dry and if you feel the overwhelming urge, polish them with a soft dry cloth. Voila! Sparkles!

A good protective measure is to take your diamond rings into a jeweler every once in a while and have the settings checked. Getting a once a year checkup for your diamonds is a good time frame if you wear them all the time. If you only wear them once in awhile, then take them in every couple years. Having lost stones due to carelessness (yes, I know it is hard to believe), I am a firm believer in the ounce of prevention theory! Let the jeweler check them and tighten the settings if need be. It doesn't matter if you have four-prong, six-prong, and low-profile channel or bezel settings, they come loose just like other settings, so have them checked.

You can always take your diamond jewelry to a jeweler to be cleaned. They have steam or ultrasound cleaners. If you have antique diamond jewelry, I would nix the ultrasound as that can make worn fissures worse.

There is also the alternative of buying (heaven forbid that one!) a jewelry cleaner. Simple, easy, and not really that expensive, it gets my vote every time!

And if you've worn that ring once too often, or the necklace is so last year, well sell it on your favorite online auction. Then you can afford that awesome little diamond bracelet you found there yesterday.
