Washing of Diamond Wedding Rings

By: Mark Fisher

Diamond and other stones placed on a ring are very vulnerable as they are outside of the design and can receive the brunt of blows. If the stone is diamond then you need to take care of it appropriately. Diamond is the hardest compound and also the brightest and strongest compound in the world, but eve it can be damaged.

One of the most common ways of getting your ring dirty is daily work and kitchen work especially. The oil gets stuck to it very easily and makes a layer on the brightness and glow of that ring and on the stone. Even the oils from skin can have a detrimental effect on the cleanliness of your ring. Every kind of jewelry especially rings tend to get dirty in one day wear and must be cleaned. The simple and easiest way of clean your ring is washing it. But washing means with lots of care and gentleness. Wash it with a mild shop and then give your ring a soft ouch of brush which will wash the ring and stone as well. All the loose particles will be removed and washed away. But always be careful about this washing because little bit of carelessness means a lot of misery. You can lose your stone of your ring or worse than this you can lose your ring. So be careful and do not wash it around the sink or any pipe or hole that can lead your precious ring to an unrecoverable darkness.

Diamonds and other stone studied rings should always be kept individually in soft cloth pouches so that the stones remain unharmed from hitting each other and chipping. Some ring settings also offer better safety: six-prong setting, four-prong setting and bezel settings.

You can soak your wedding or engagement ring in a solution of ammonia and cold water for half an hour and then have your ring washed. There are also various washing solutions available in the market. You just have to follow the instructions carefully and be careful not to touch the diamond with your finger tips. Doing so defeats your purpose by transferring the oil from your fingertips onto the diamond. Always handle your diamond ring by the edges and have a habit of removing your wedding rings and other jewelry while you are busy in heavy work. Thus you can keep your ring and other jewelry unscratched and clean. You can use for more resistant stains, employ a soft brush with a weak solution of ammonia (one-fifth) and water (four-fifth). The smudges, we hope, will disappear.

Specialized Jewelers also clean diamonds and other gems with a small fee for you. They utilize steam or ultrasound. However, ultrasound can exacerbate internal fissures or flaws of a diamond, so make sure the diamonds existing clarity remains unaffected. Therefore its not that hard to wash your diamond wedding ring but its better to be careful with it as it is not only precious for its monetary value but also for the very special occasion and the memories it caries.
