Fine jewelry is designed to last for generations—but only if it’s properly cared for. Diamonds, gold, and precious gemstones may be durable, but they still need attention to maintain their brilliance. At Diamond Tales, we believe that jewelry care is just as important as its craftsmanship. Here are our expert tips to ensure your pieces remain luminous for years to come.

Store Jewelry Separately

To avoid scratches and tangling, always store each piece individually. Soft pouches or lined jewelry boxes are ideal. Diamonds are the hardest natural material, but they can still scratch other diamonds or softer gemstones when stored together.

Avoid Harsh Environments

Jewelry should be the finishing touch, not the first thing you put on. Remove your pieces when swimming, exercising, or applying lotions, perfumes, or hair products. Chemicals and saltwater can erode metals and dull the sparkle of gemstones.

Clean with Care

A gentle cleaning routine preserves brilliance. Use a soft brush with warm water and mild soap to remove buildup from everyday wear. Avoid harsh cleaners or abrasive cloths that can scratch surfaces. For pearls and softer gemstones, always use extra caution. We sell our very own Diamond Tools, The Cleaning Pen and The Jewelry Foaming Cleaner

Schedule Professional Checkups

Even the finest settings can loosen over time. At Diamond Tales, we recommend a professional cleaning and inspection at least once a year. This ensures prongs, clasps, and mountings are secure, protecting your investment while restoring radiance.

Make It a Ritual

Caring for your jewelry is more than maintenance—it’s a ritual that preserves your story. These pieces are meant to be worn, loved, and passed down, carrying their brilliance from one generation to the next.

The Diamond Tales Promise

When you purchase a piece from Diamond Tales, you’re investing in luxury designed to last. With proper care and our expert guidance, your jewelry will remain as timeless and radiant as the day it was created.
