At Forever Jewels, we believe that your jewelry should last a lifetime. Whether it’s an engagement ring, a luxury bracelet, or a cherished pendant, proper care and maintenance will ensure that your pieces continue to shine and sparkle for years to come. To help you keep your jewelry in perfect condition, we’ve put together some essential tips for proper care and repair services.
Jewelry Care Tips
Proper maintenance is the key to preserving the beauty of your jewelry. Below are some simple yet effective ways to care for your pieces and keep them looking as stunning as the day you got them.
1. Clean Your Jewelry Regularly
Cleaning your jewelry is essential to removing dirt, oils, and other residues that can dull its shine. Here are some cleaning tips:
- Diamonds & Gemstones: Use a soft, lint-free cloth and a gentle cleaning solution. For extra sparkle, soak the jewelry in warm water with mild dish soap for 20-30 minutes, then gently brush it with a soft toothbrush to remove dirt.
- Gold & Silver: Use a jewelry polishing cloth to keep your gold and silver pieces looking polished and bright. Avoid harsh chemicals, as they can cause damage.
- Pearls & Opals: These delicate stones require extra care. Clean them using a soft, damp cloth and avoid soaking them in water. Always store them separately from other jewelry to avoid scratching.
2. Store Your Jewelry Properly
Storage plays a crucial role in maintaining your jewelry’s integrity. To prevent damage, follow these guidelines:
- Jewelry Boxes: Always store your pieces in a soft-lined jewelry box with individual compartments. This helps prevent scratches and tangling.
- Avoid Humidity: Store jewelry in a cool, dry place, away from heat sources, bathrooms, or areas with high humidity.
- Avoid Exposure to Chemicals: Keep your jewelry away from harsh chemicals, lotions, perfumes, and hair products. These substances can cause tarnishing or dullness over time.
3. Avoid Wearing Jewelry During Physical Activities
While jewelry is made to be durable, it’s best to avoid wearing your precious pieces during physical activities or while doing chores. Activities such as exercising, cleaning, swimming, or gardening can expose your jewelry to wear and tear, potentially leading to scratches, tarnishing, or stone loss.
- Take Off Jewelry When Sleeping: Rings, bracelets, and necklaces can easily get caught in sheets or during sleep, leading to potential breakage. It's best to remove jewelry before going to bed.
4. Get Your Jewelry Professionally Inspected
Just like a car requires regular maintenance, your jewelry needs occasional checkups. We recommend having your jewelry professionally cleaned and inspected at least once a year. This will help detect any loose stones, worn prongs, or damage that may not be visible to the naked eye.
At Forever Jewels, we offer professional cleaning and inspection services to ensure that your pieces are always in perfect condition.
Jewelry Repair Services
Even with the best care, jewelry can occasionally need repairs due to everyday wear and tear. Whether it's a loose stone, a broken chain, or a bent band, we’re here to help. Our expert jewelers can restore your precious pieces to their original beauty with the following services:
1. Ring Sizing & Resizing
If your ring no longer fits comfortably, we offer resizing services for all types of rings. Whether it’s a classic engagement ring or a custom-designed piece, we can adjust the size to ensure a perfect fit.
2. Stone Replacement & Re-setting
Over time, stones may become loose or fall out. If you notice a missing diamond, gemstone, or other decorative stone, we offer professional replacement and re-setting services. We use the highest quality stones to match or upgrade your original piece.
3. Chain & Clasp Repair
Broken chains or clasps are common but easily repaired. Our jewelers specialize in fixing broken chains, resizing them, and replacing damaged clasps to restore your necklace or bracelet to its full functionality.
4. Prong Repair
Prongs are the tiny metal claws that hold your stones in place. If you’ve noticed your stone looks loose or is wobbling, it’s important to have your prongs repaired to prevent the stone from falling out. We offer prong repair and maintenance to ensure your stones remain securely in place.
5. Polishing & Restoration
Over time, jewelry can accumulate scratches or tarnish, diminishing its shine. We offer professional polishing and restoration services to bring your pieces back to their original luster. Whether your gold has dulled or your silver has tarnished, we can restore it to its brilliant finish.
6. Custom Repair Services
For custom pieces that need special attention, our skilled jewelers can provide tailored repair services, restoring your custom designs to their full glory.
