How to Maintain Your Jewelry Correctly (I)

The purchase of jewelry is a relaxed and pleasant thing, when you buy the jewelry back, how to use and maintain it is also an important thing. If we don’t know the real use of protection methods, the jewelry will lightly hurt, lose luster, or even be more likely to cause the main stone loose and falling down.

Here we provide nine kinds of right way to wear and maintain jewelry for the consumer’s reference. Today let talk about the first three methods.

1. It's wrong to use toothpaste to clean jewelry.
There is a saying in the jewelry circle: using a toothbrush with toothpasteto brush the jewelry can make it be as bright as new one. We should clean the jewelry, but it is not ideal to clean it with the toothpaste, because toothpaste contains the fine abrasive particles with high hardness, which is very small but the hardness up to six or seven degrees (almost the same with crystal), so using toothpaste to clean jewelry jewel surface will damage the crystal, whose hardness is low, especially the surface of pearl, gold ans K gold. Pearl should absolutely avoid this cleaning way, most correct detergent solution should be diluted neutral surfactants (such as salad, baby shampoo).

2. Don't touch the jewelry frequently.
Many people can not help to touch stones surface while seeing the beautiful jewelry, which will affect the luster and brightness of gem. The human body will excrete sweat and oily on the surface of the skinfrom time to time. Hand is most likely to touch the parts of the body, so the oil will often patch to the hand, when you touch the stones, the hands of the oil is easy to stay on the gemsurface, which will affect the luster and brightness of gems. Especially the diamond belongs to the lipophilic surface of stones, easily contaminated oil, will greatly affect the luster. But the jadeite jade belongs to the collection structure, often using hand to touch it can make it more moist and lovely.

3. Tap water will damage the pearl luster.
Some people wear pearl several times later and them want to cleaning and maintenance, but don't know using a clean tap water to clean it just has little effect on the jewelry, but we cannot use it to soak pearl, because the tap water has a fixed content of chlorine (C1), it will damage the surface of the pearl luster, in fact, the mineral water should be the most ideal water to soak the pearl.
