salt and water with a tooth brush works great. Sprinkle some salt on it and with a wet toothbrush, gentley brust the diamond. Toothpaste only works well with gold but leaves the diamond kinda dull.

Diamonds

Tips for General Care

Even though you may wear your diamond engagement ring 24 hours a day, you should still give thought to its care.

Don't wear it when you're doing rough work. Even though a diamond is durable, it can be chipped by a hard blow.

Don't let your diamond ring come in contact with a chlorine bleach when you're doing household chores. It can damage and discolor the mounting.

Visit our showroom at least once a year and have us check your ring and other precious pieces for loose prongs and wear of mountings. Safian & Rudolph will professionally clean your jewelry as a courtesy to you, our customer.

When you're not wearing diamonds and precious jewelry, keep them in a fabric-lined jewel case, or a box with compartments or dividers.

If you prefer to use ordinary boxes, wrap each piece individually in tissue paper.

Don't jumble your diamond pieces in a drawer or jewelry case, because diamonds can scratch other jewelry-and can even scratch each other.

Traveling With Diamonds

Always carry your diamonds on you; never pack them in your checked luggage. There are many types of carry-alls, especially designed for jewelry travel. They come in all sizes, shapes and prices. Most have velvet pads inside to attach pins and earrings, and special compartments for bracelets and necklaces.

Don't leave your ring on the rim of a sink when you remove it to wash your hands. It can easily slip down the drain.

Cleaning Your Diamonds

Diamonds get smudged, soiled and dusty. Lotions, powders, soaps, even the natural skin oils, put a film on diamonds and interfere with their brilliance. Clean diamonds "glow" because the maximum amount of light can then enter and return in a fiery brilliance. It takes just a little care to keep them that way.

Prepare a small bowl of warm suds with any of the mild liquid detergents used in the home or make a half-and-half solution of cold water and household ammonia in a cup. Brush the pieces with an eyebrow brush, or an old soft toothbrush while they are in the suds. Then transfer them to a wire tea strainer and rinse them under running water. Pat dry with a soft lint-less cloth.

I have a jar of jewelry cleaner I bought at my local department store. Jewelry stores usually sell their own brand of it, also. Follow the directions on it and it works just fine.

The toothbrush idea isn't actually a bad one. My aunt has a separate head for her electric toothbrush that she uses with just a dot of plain toothpaste on her jewelry and it shines like new when she's done. I wouldn't recommend using any kind of harsh cleansers though. I know diamonds are supposed to be impervious to anything but themselves, but why take chances with something so expensive?
