Jewelry Care & Repair
How do I care for my Jewelry?
Jewelry made out of precious metals and gemstones are delicate and require constant upkeep and care. If cared for properly fine jewelry can become a treasured family heirloom!
Dust, pollution and daily wear all cause the brilliance and shine of metals and gemstones to become dull and cloudy. We recommend professional cleaning and servicing at least once a year. Stop by any of our locations for complimentary servicing.
In between servicing, store your jewelry safely in a jewelry case. Prior to storage, wipe your jewelry of any fluids that it may have come in contact with throughout the day. Examine your jewelry on a regular basis and take care to protect your jewelry from impact against hard surfaces or abrasive surfaces.
You can clean your gemstones at home to prevent any clouding. For diamonds, use a mild solution of water and soap and gently brush with a soft bristle. For softer gemstones such as pearls, simply wipe gently with a damp cloth.
