Fine jewelry is designed and crafted to last generations with proper jecare. A standard rule is to see your jeweler at least twice a year to have your jewelry professionally checked, cleaned, and steamed. However, it is ideal to visit your jeweler every 3 months to stay ahead of expensive repairs. A jeweler will look for loose or broken prongs, worn mountings, loose or missing stones, and observe general wear and tear.

Jewelry Care Hacks: 2 Top Tips Every Jewelry Lover Needs to Know About

#1 Jewelry Cleaning

Here are some basic guidelines for care, and cleaning at home:

Store your jewelry in a clean, dry environment.
Keep your jewelry in a fabric-lined jewelry case, or in a box with compartments and dividers. However, if you prefer to use ordinary boxes wrap each piece individually in soft tissue paper.
Don’t jumble your jewelry in a drawer or jewelry case. Pieces can scratch and rub against each other. This causes chains to get knotted and stones to become loose.
Invest in a machine called an ultrasonic cleaner. They are available in many different models and prices. Your local jeweler can recommend an appropriate model based on your needs.

In the summer months, jewelry requires some extra care:

No chlorine or salt water! Definitely remove all jewelry before going into a hot tub, swimming pool, or salt water. Chlorine and salt water can damage and discolor metals (silver, gold, and platinum). It will also erode the finish of gemstones.
Don’t wear jewelry when applying sunscreen, and lotions. These products dull the appearance of your piece by leaving a film behind.
Wipe jewelry after wearing, and before storing. You can use a clean, soft, slightly damp cloth to wipe jewelry to remove any summer lotions.

#2 Insure Your Jewelry
