Cold water soaking method: This method uses half a cup of household Armenian water or alcohol, adds the same volume of clear water, soaks the gem in the solution, gently stirs it, then takes it out, and absorbs the water with paper.

Timely maintenance
If the jewelry is damaged, it needs to be sent to a jewelry store or a processing factory for re-processing or repair. When doing so, in order to prevent jewelry from being replaced and other unpleasant events, customers should take the following measures:
1. Be familiar with the appearance characteristics of gems. Are the colors, quantities and colors of gems consistent? How clear is the gem? Are there any recognizable marks? Where do these marks appear on the gem? What are the characteristics of waist cutting of gemstones? How thick is the waist? How much does this gem weigh? If it is a large gem, the above characteristics should be reflected in the gem identification and grading certificate at the time of purchase. If there is no certificate, customers should try to learn to observe their gems with the naked eye.
2. If conditions permit, you can take photos of the typical characteristics of gems and their ornaments as evidence.
3. Find a reputable jewelry store or factory to rework or repair.
4. If time permits, you can watch the repairman re-insert or repair it on the spot.
Precautions for use
1. When doing housework, don't let the drill bit be contaminated with oil or bleach, because oil will affect the luster of the diamond ornaments; Bleaching water will discolor or spot the metal. Or produce spots.
2. Avoid storing multiple pieces of precious stones and jewelry at the same time. When gems and jewelry rub against each other, they will scratch the inlaid metal, and sometimes gems will scratch the gems themselves.
3. When cleaning jewelry, we should also pay attention to the fact that alcohol and ammonia will corrode some gems. Therefore, if gem ring is inlaid with other gems at the same time, you must use these schemes carefully, and it is best to consult relevant experts in advance; Do not use acid solution or ammonia water to clean the filled gem, which will make the filler dissolve or change color. Do not use chlorine-containing solution to clean inlaid jewelry, chlorine will corrode gold-containing alloys, so do not wear jewelry when swimming in the swimming pool; When cleaning jewelry with ultrasonic cleaning machine, be careful not to clean cracked gems, so as not to break them under ultrasonic vibration.
4. Regular cleaning is very necessary, especially diamonds are sticky to oil, and diamonds in skin oil, cosmetics and kitchen oil will lose their luster. If you wear jewelry every day, it is best to clean it once a week, at least once every two weeks.
5. It is not advisable to wear diamond ornaments for heavy work. Although the diamond is hard and wear-resistant, it may be damaged if it is hit hard according to its grain direction.
6. Platinum jewelry should be sent to the jewelry store for inspection every year to check whether diamonds and inserts are loose and worn, so as to repair them in time.
Jewelry must be maintained, damage will not only bring economic losses to the owner, but also bring adverse effects to the owner's psychology; In addition, beading will also affect the appearance due to dust accumulation.
