7 Engagement Ring Dos and Don'ts
Here, Dana and Rad share their tried-and-tested engagement ring cleaning and care tips. Certainly, your fine jewelry will be well made if you order through the Dana Walden Studio but there are a few best practices to help you protect your investment and treat it with respect; not to mention, these habits will extend the time between professional cleanings which can save you some cash. (If you have a Dana Walden engagement ring, ask us about our complimentary cleaning services.)
Without further ado, here are our top tips for keeping your ring clean and cared for:
- Do make sure your engagement ring is the last thing you put on in the morning and the first thing you take off in the evening.
- Don't wear your engagement ring while applying lotions or other beauty products.
- Do store your engagement ring in your Dana Walden ring box after wear.
- Don't wear your engagement ring during activities that may expose it to harsh chemicals or a hard blow (i.e. sports, gardening, cleaning, etc.)
- Do clean your ring (using the process shown below), but be sure to use a gentle touch.
- Don't remove your ring by pulling at the center diamond or gemstone, which will weaken the prongs over time. Gently slide it off from the base instead.
- Don't wear your engagement ring while swimming or showering, as your fingers can shrink in water and chlorine can damage metals used to alloy gold for diamond settings.
