Caring For Your Lab-Created Diamond Jewelry

Learn how to properly clean and maintain your precious gemstone jewelry to make it last a lifetime.

Jewelry is an important part of any woman's wardrobe, but it also requires proper maintenance to keep its beauty for years to come. 

For the most part, lab-created diamonds are sturdy stones, so you won’t have to worry about them getting scratched or damaged with proper use. They also won’t lose their sparkle and won’t get cloudy over time. One of the few things you should be thinking about is securing them in a place where they won’t get lost and won’t get tangled with other pieces of jewelry in your collection. 

Another thing to worry about is the metal that was used for the jewelry. Most precious metals, such as platinum and gold, will not tarnish and fade over time, but they require some TLC to remove accumulated dirt and maintain their luster.

This guide will teach you how to properly clean and care for your lab-created diamond jewelry.

How To Maintain Your Lab-Created Jewelry.

Jewelry will need daily cleaning to remove oil and debris that may accumulate on your jewelry. It’s easy to do and will require a few materials you already have at home.

To do a quick clean, simply use a soft-bristled brush and any mild soap or dedicated jewelry-cleaning solution to gently scrub the surface of the jewelry. Make sure not to rub the surface too hard, as this will damage the finish of the metals. Rinse using clean, lukewarm water and then dry using a clean towel.

To deep clean your jewelry once every week, soak it in a mixture of jewelry cleaning solution and water for about ten minutes. Rinse using clean water, and don’t forget to dry your jewelry after washing it. 

Avoid corrosive cleaning substances such as ammonia, bleach, and acetone and other substances, to avoid damaging the jewelry.

How To Properly Store Your Jewelry.

To maintain the beauty of your jewelry and avoid damage, remove the jewelry while working or doing any rigorous physical work such as gardening, cleaning, and outdoor sports.

After removing your jewelry, it should be stored in a safe place where it won't be exposed to extreme temperatures or humidity levels. If possible, store your jewelry in a box with a zipper closure. Storing the jewelry in a jewelry box with separate compartments or in a plastic bag and placing them inside a drawer is also a good way to store your jewelry.
