Cleaning & Caring for Your Jewelry Recommendations
Cleaning Your Jewelry
This is for sapphire and diamond jewelry. Please research your gemstones before cleaning. There are gemstones that cannot handle these recommendations.
Step 1
Fill a small dish with lukewarm water and add a small amount of dish soap. We recommend a gentle option, such as Dawn Dish Soap.
Step 2
Set your jewelry in the soapy water for about 10 minutes. We do not recommend cleaning items together due to the risk of scratching one another.
Step 3
Use a soft-bristled brush, such as a toothbrush, to gently remove the dirt. Gently brush around the stone and underneath. You will find the most dirt and residue underneath the stone. You can place your jewelry back in the soapy water while brushing it. This will help remove leftover dirt.
Step 4
Rinse your jewelry with clean running water. Be very careful not to drop it. It is a good practice to lay a towel in the sink while rinsing the jewelry. You can use a lint-free cloth or a blow dryer to dry your ring.

It is recommended to have your jewelry checked by a professional 1-2 times a year or as needed. Pieces with many prongs should be checked more often, especially rings. Low traffic areas like necklaces or earring may not need check as often.
Clean your jewelry when you notice visible residue. If a deeper clean is needed, we recommend having it cleaned at a jewelry store.
Remove your jewelry for certain activities and possible exposure to harsh chemicals. For you ring, it recommended to remove it for things like yard work, weight lifting, swimming, doing the dishes.
It is not recommended to remove your jewelry in public and to plan ahead to avoid this.
How to know if you jewelry need to be check by a professional:
We recommend first cleaning your jewelry. This will remove any built-up dirt so that you can truly tell if your stones are loose in the setting.
After you have cleaned it, you can hold the piece by your ear and tap the metal. If any stones are loose, you should be able to hear them rattling around. This works most of the time, but not always.
If you have a magnifying glass, you can examine the piece closely to look for stones that are out of place or damaged. Please note that seeing out-of-place or damaged stones does not always mean that they are unsafe; we recommend having a professional take a look.
