Many couples believe the diamond jewelry such as rings signify eternal love and the unbreakable bond of marriage that’s why more and more people are being meticulous about it. Of all the kinds of wedding and engagement jewelry available in the market today, one of the most popular and in demand is those with diamond. Men say diamond jewelry are timeless because of its classic appeal while women agree that the simplicity and elegance of the diamond jewelry can complement any existing fashion sense out there. When shopping for a diamond jewelry Shopping for that diamond jewelry ring can be quite an adventure/misadventure if you don’t gear up for it. Here are some important details you must bear in mind to lessen the stress during that diamond jewelry “hunting day”: 1. List down what are the qualities that you are looking for your diamond jewelry. Jotting down preferred cut, shape, metal, and cost can help you find that perfect diamond jewelry for purposes like an engagement ring for your fiancée or as a present to a person who is very important in your life. 2. Surf the net for the latest trends in diamond jewelry and designs. Diamond jewelry usually comes with many different beautiful styles, textures, shapes, and colors. Searching for different web sites in the Internet that feature such product will help you determine which ones are valuable. You might even buy online because countless unique collections of diamond jewelry out in the market are also featured there. 3. Examine the diamond jewelry closely. Since the jewelry will exalt the magnificence of the diamond itself, you should examine the stone closely. If you’re on a limited budget, you can purchase the best stone your money can afford and just choose a mount—metal—that is less expensive. 4. Consider the size of the diamond on the jewelry. Make sure that stone size of the diamond should reciprocate the size of the person you are giving it to. For instance, you are going to give diamond jewelry such as a ring to your ride. As a general rule, petite woman should wear smaller stones than those full-figured women. 5. Be creative and imaginative. Diamond jewelry itself is a traditional style but you can be creative and imaginative about it by experimenting in the shape of the stone and the color of the setting. 6. After choosing your stone and its shape, decide on the setting or the metal you want to use. Gold—either white or yellow—is the most common options but you can also choose platinum if you want to be different. The setting can be a four-prong setting that shows off the stone while the six-prong setting offers more of a security advantage. 7. Consider the cut you prefer. Aside from the size of the diamond stone, the cut or shape of your diamond jewelry can set it apart from the rest. The safest and most common cuts are round but you can also opt for princess solitaire or square cut stone, modern heart shape, pear or tear drop shape, oval shape, marquise shape, emerald cut, radiant shape, and asscher shape based on your personal taste.

Thursday, December 30th, 2010Detergent washUsing a mild detergent and warm water prepare a soapy solution. Leave your ring in this solution for a few minutes. Then using a soft brush clean the diamond, areas like the prongs and other parts of the metal band where there are chances of dust accumulation. Rinse the diamond jewelry in warm water. Finally pat it dry with a lint free cloth. A buffing cloth can also be used to give your diamond jewelry a shine. A wooden toothpick may also be used to gently push away dirt from hard to reach areas.Ammonia washA 1:1 ratio of household ammonia and water can also be used to clean diamonds. Mix ammonia and water in equal parts and soak your diamond jewelry in it for approximately twenty minutes. Use a soft brush to remove dirt and rinse in the solution again. Air dry the diamond by leaving it on absorbent tissue paper. However, fracture filled diamonds must not be cleaned using this method. Also if the piece of jewelry has other precious gemstones in it, consult an expert before using ammonia wash.Ultrasonic cleaningUltrasonic cleaners available at jewelry stores are also useful for cleaning diamonds. Here, in the first step, the cleaner uses high frequency waves which vibrate to create many microscopic cleaning bubbles. These bubbles loosen out the dirt in the cracks and crevices of the ring, including prongs. In the second step a high pressure steamer blasts away the particles. However if your diamond jewelry also includes other precious stones like emeralds and rubies, it would be best to first take the advice of a gemologist before ultrasonic cleaning. Also the GIA does not recommend the usage of ultrasonic or steam cleaners for cleaning diamonds.Off the counter cleanersMany cleaners are also available at stores. Your diamond dealer may also have given you a cleaner like the Mr. Clean – all purpose cleaner. Follow the instructions carefully while using such products on your diamond. Avoid using cleaners that contain acid as this may affect the surface of the gemstone. Also if you have purchased the solution from a store that does not deal in diamonds, consult your gemologist before using it. Avoid abrasive cleaners while cleaning your diamond. Toothpaste should also not be used for cleaning as it usually has baking soda or other ingredients that can cause scratches.Cleaning diamonds on a regular basis ensures that they sparkle for a long time to come. You can clean them once a month or even once a week depending upon your usage. It is recommended that as soon as you note a film buildup, caused due to soap or oil, clean your ring at home. Professional cleaning can be opted for once a year, whereby the ring can be repolished and the jeweler will also check and tighten the prongs of the ring.CaringA little care goes a long way in keeping your diamond sparkling and shimmering as ever.
