NO BEACH VACATION FOR YOUR RING
Chips and scratches are more likely to happen if you wear your ring to the beach or in the water. You’re better off leaving it at home (in a safe place of course) and wearing a rubber ring instead. It can get discolored in the water, you can chip it, or worse leave it behind.
GET IT CLEANED
Summertime is the perfect time to get your ring cleaned! You can do some regular at home cleaning with a toothbrush during the next three months. Be gentle and use a mixture of hot water and gin to make it shine again. The best course of action would be to take your diamond jewelry to your jeweler and have it steamed cleaned at the end of summer.

We know it’s a great time to get those projects done that you’ve been putting off, but please keep your ring away from any harsh chemicals! Whether it is a washing detergent, bleach, or as innocent looking as a perfume or an anti-aging serum. All of these will be equally dangerous to the gemstone, as they all contain chemicals.
SCHEDULE A SUMMER VISIT TO YOUR JEWELER
Make an appointment this summer monthly appointment from your jeweler to have them assess your diamond jewelry or diamond engagement ring before any big trips or events. They can identify if the prongs are tight enough or if any of the diamonds in your diamond jewelry were becoming lose or if the shank or clasp is in pristine condition or not. An allover check-up and maintenance of your diamond jewelry is essential.
