Caring for Fine Jewellery

Simple habits that keep diamonds bright and settings secure.

Knowledge Centre

Everyday care

Put jewellery on after perfume and cosmetics, and take it off for sport, gardening and cleaning. Store pieces separately so harder stones do not scratch softer ones or metal.

Cleaning

Most diamond jewellery can be cleaned with warm water, mild soap and a soft brush. Pearls and many coloured gemstones need gentler care: wipe them with a soft cloth and avoid soaking.

Check settings

Have prongs and settings checked by a jeweller periodically, especially for rings worn every day.
