Maintenance method of diamond

In daily life, many people don't pay much attention to the maintenance of diamonds, which is wrong. Let me introduce you to several simple maintenance methods:

1, quick cleaning method:

Buy a bottle of brand-name jewelry cleaning solution, together with a gift container, and clean the diamonds according to the instructions.

2, use toothpaste to clean jewelry-the method is wrong.

There is a saying in the jewelry circle that when you brush jewelry with a toothbrush dipped in toothpaste, the jewelry you can use looks as bright as new. It is necessary to clean jewelry, but toothpaste is not ideal, because toothpaste contains fine abrasive particles with high hardness, and these abrasive particles are very fine but the hardness is as high as six or seven degrees (similar to that of crystal), so cleaning jewelry with toothpaste will damage the surface of gems with hardness lower than that of crystal, especially pearls, gold and K gold; Pearls are absolutely avoided, and the most correct washing solution should be diluted neutral surfactant (such as salad dressing and baby shampoo).

Don't touch diamonds often.

Jewelry can be kept clean when worn. It seems simple, but it is not easy. Many people can't help touching the beautiful and charming surface of a gem, which will actually affect the luster and brightness of the gem. From time to time, the human body excretes sweat and oil on the skin surface, and the hand is the most accessible part of the body, so the oil on the skin often pollutes the surface of the hand. When you touch a gem with your hand, the grease on your hand is easy to stay on the gem, which affects the luster and brightness of the gem. In particular, diamonds are lipophilic gems, and their surfaces are easily contaminated with grease, which greatly affects their luster. But both jade and white jade belong to aggregate structure, and frequent touching can make jade more moist and lovely.

4. Use the ultrasonic cleaner carefully.

Ultrasonic cleaning machine does have a good cleaning effect on jewelry with K-gold gem and jewelry with K-gold cleaning function, especially for cleaning oil dirt and dust that can't be brushed off by the brush in the fine seam of gem. However, ultrasonic cleaning machine is not suitable for all gems, such as emeralds, pearls and other gems with special structures. Ultrasonic cleaning will destroy their structures and should be absolutely avoided. In addition, although the cleaning effect of ultrasonic cleaning machine is good, it is easy to use, so don't use it often. If it is used too frequently, it is easy to make the bit loose or even fall off because of repeated impact.

5. Pay attention to substances containing acids and bases.

Some substances we come into contact with in our daily life or food contain different concentrations of acid or alkali, which may damage precious stones, especially pearls; Or other organic gems. When using products in daily life, we should try to avoid being contaminated by jewelry. Wear makeup and perfume before wearing jewelry on weekdays to avoid high-concentration cosmetics or perfume directly contacting the surface of jewelry. If you need to replenish perfume, you should also avoid spraying perfume directly on the surface of jewelry.

6. Tap water destroys the luster of pearls.

Some people want to clean and maintain pearls after wearing them several times, but they don't know that cleaning with tap water for a short time has little effect on jewelry, but if it is used to soak pearls, it is absolutely impossible. Because there is a fixed content of chlorine (C 1) in tap water, it will destroy the luster of pearl surface. In fact, mineral water is the best way to soak and wash pearls. In addition, after wearing pearls, they should be cleaned and maintained before being sent to the safe deposit box in the bank, so as to avoid discoloration of pearls due to dirt accumulation for too long in the future. Moreover, the storage conditions of safe deposit boxes for cash and documents kept by banks are not suitable for tidal gems such as pearls and protein, so they must be taken out every once in a while, soaked in water for maintenance and supplemented with humidity.

7. Never put diamonds and other jewels in a drawer or jewelry box.

Because diamonds scratch other jewels when rubbed. At the same time, platinum jewelry should not be worn with gold jewelry. Because gold is soft, if it rubs against each other, it will not only damage gold ornaments, but also dye gold on platinum, turning yellow and difficult to remove.

8. Diamonds can stick to grease.

Diamonds with skin oil, cosmetics and kitchen oil will lose their luster, so they should be cleaned once a month. The cleaning method is: immerse the platinum jewelry in the jewelry cleaning solution for about 5 minutes, take it out and brush the diamond lightly with a small toothbrush, then put it on the filter screen and wash it with water, and finally absorb the water with a soft cloth.

9. Send platinum jewelry to the jewelry store for inspection every year.

Check whether diamonds and inserts are loose and worn, so as to repair them in time.

10, take it off in time, that is, diamond maintenance.

The correct wearing of jewelry depends on people, things, times, places and things, but it may not be possible for busy modern people. But at least it is best to take it off when washing your hands, because some soaps contain alkaline substances to varying degrees, which may cause a kind of "damage" to fragile diamonds over time, and the soap in soaps is also easy to get stuck in the gap of the ring, thus greatly affecting the luster and brightness of diamonds.

1 1, pay attention to the order of wearing jewelry.

When wearing annual inlaid jewelry or rings, you should avoid snagging clothes and wallets. If clothes are caught, the main stone will not fall off immediately. Generally speaking, the order of wearing jewelry is to put on clothes before wearing jewelry. Imagine putting the single diamond ring finger of prong setting on your hand, and then dressing and wearing stockings. Is it dangerous for clothes, stockings and gems? There are many ways of setting jewelry. The safest way to insert jewelry without hooking clothes is to wrap it, but it wraps the whole waist, making it impossible for light to enter. And because the K-gold part is used more, the visual effect is not as attractive as the pointed inlay. Therefore, pointed inlay is still the most popular in the jewelry market, but pay attention to the order of wearing.
