At Home Care Tips for Your Jewelry
Remove rings for gym, yard work, and heavy lifting.
Avoid harsh chemicals/chlorine; they can damage metals and stones.
Store pieces individually (soft pouches help prevent scratches).
Schedule a quick 6-month prong & setting check—it’s the best insurance against lost stones.
