It is easy to overlook that your gold rings, diamond earrings, gold chains and more require a cleanse as you may be wearing them often. It is advisable to scrutinise your gold or diamond jewellery every 6 to 12 months and check if they need to be given a reasonable polish.

Prolonged exposure to light and heat can have a negative effect on your gold or diamond jewellery. Certain gemstones are especially vulnerable to heat, while other jewels might bleach under the sun. Excessive heat can also fracture gems or create tiny cracks.

Even daily chemicals such as hairspray, perfume, cosmetics and more can discolour precious metals, such as gold, silver and platinum. They can also damage other items such as pearls. Make sure to remove any jewellery before going into the swimming pool. It is also advisable to apply perfume on areas without jewellery.

An ultrasonic cleaner is an excellent option for cleaning your jewellery, but exercise this option with caution. Certain “softer” gems and jewels can crack or chip under the pressure of the cleanse. You can use the cleaner for diamond rings, necklaces and hard metals.

Microfiber polishing cloth, similar to the ones you use to clean your sunglasses, is an alternative to aggressive cleansing methods. Polishing is also a quicker option. You can quickly clean your pendants, nose pins and gold rings to get the gleam back.

If you store your jewellery on top of your dresser, you are asking for trouble. That is the most common place where pieces get scratched and exposed to chemicals. The best place to keep your jewellery is in a specially created box, similar to the one you received them in. Boxes or vanity cases that have individual slots for rings, necklaces, bracelets and more are also a good selection.
