How to Care for Your Gold & Diamond Jewellery
Your jewellery isn’t just an accessory—it’s a valuable part of your story. With proper care, your gold and diamond pieces can maintain their brilliance and beauty for generations. Here are our expert tips on how to keep your jewellery looking its best.
1. Clean Gently and Regularly
Use a soft-bristled toothbrush, warm water, and mild dish soap to gently clean your jewellery. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, especially on delicate settings or plated pieces.
Tip: For diamonds, soak for 20 minutes before brushing to loosen dirt and oils.
2. Avoid Harsh Conditions
Take off your jewellery when cleaning, swimming, exercising, or using beauty products. Chemicals like chlorine and perfumes can dull metals and damage stones over time.
3. Store It Properly
Keep each piece in a soft pouch or a lined jewellery box to prevent scratches and tangling. Store gold and diamond pieces separately from other materials to protect their finish and sparkle.
4. Inspect and Maintain
Check clasps, settings, and stones regularly for signs of loosening or wear. Bring your pieces to Rai Jewellery for professional inspections, polishing, and repairs as needed.
5. Replate White Gold (if applicable)
White gold pieces are often coated with rhodium to enhance brightness. To maintain the finish, have them professionally replated every 12–18 months.
Final Thought
Jewellery care is simple but powerful. A few mindful steps can keep your favourite pieces shining and strong for years to come.
