1. Use the same storage spot If you are going to take the ring off, always store it in the same place — we mean in a jewelry box at home, not your pocket or purse — and never leave it near a sink. 2. Store your ring separately Since a diamond can scratch less-hard jewels like pearls, store your ring in an individual soft cloth pouch or in its own compartment of a lined jewelry box to prevent scratching. 3. The diamond must come with paperwork A diamond's value depends on its four C's, and the only way to certify those is with a Certificate of Authenticity and an independent grading report by a gemological institution that attests to the authenticity of the diamond's carat weight, color grade, clarity grade, and quality of cut.
Each diamond should be laser-engraved with an individual serial number, so you could prove it's yours if it was ever lost. The ID number also makes it impossible for the diamond to be secretly substituted during any cleanings or repairs down the line. 5. You can always add on later If your diamond is smaller than you'd hoped, you can always add side stones, a diamond band, or swap out the diamond altogether for a larger one down the line when you may have more money to spend on it. Many couples add to the engagement ring for future anniversaries. 6. Get your ring insured right away First, have the ring appraised by a jeweler, then add it to you homeowner's insurance policy, or you can cover it through a personal jewelry insurance specialist like Jeweler's Mutual Insurance. Either way, make sure it covers not just theft, but also if you lose or damage it.
Everyday activities like showering and applying lotion can dull a diamond's luster. Clean it regularly with an ultrasonic jewelry cleaner or use a soft-bristle toothbrush, warm water, and mild, non-detergent soap. The good news is you can't over-clean a diamond! 8. Bring it for professional cleanings, too Even with good care at home, you'll want to have your ring professionally cleaned every six months to steam out the gunk behind the mounting. Some companies, like Tiffany & Co., will clean it for you free of charge as often as you'd like. 9. Safety is one more reason for professional cleanings In addition to getting your ring back to its original gleam, professional cleanings can also help make sure you don't lose your diamond — while it's in the shop, the experts inspect your prongs and make sure the diamond isn't coming loose. 10.Enjoy your ring It's fun to show it off to friends and family and to know you have a great piece of meaningful jewelry that you'll wear everyday for the rest of your life.
