    Caring for Gemstone Jewelry

    Colored gemstone jewelry should be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth.

    Maintaining Brilliance

    Bridal jewelry, such as engagement rings and wedding bands are typically worn daily, and can appear like they've lost their sparkle if not cleaned on a regular basis. Lotions put film on diamonds and reduce their shininess. Don't wear diamond jewelry while doing rough work. Avoid chlorinated pools and hot tubs. Avoid touching diamonds with your fingers, as smudges can affect a diamond's luster and fire.

    Clarity Enhanced Stones

    For color or clarity enhanced gemstones, ask a Holliday Jewelry professional about cleaning and repair for your gemstone jewelry. For more information about each particular gemstone, read our gemstone guide.
