In this guide, we’ll outline our top tips for pink diamond cleaning and maintenance, ensuring the beauty of your diamonds are preserved over the long term.

Pink Diamond Cleaning: 4 Options for Success

Pink diamonds are exquisite gemstones to look at, featuring a brilliant sparkle and a dazzling collection of pink hues. To keep your pink diamonds looking their best, we recommend the following cleaning options:

• Add a mild liquid detergent to a small bowl of warm water. Place the jewellery in the bowl and brush with a soft toothbrush. Rinse off using warm running water and pat the jewellery dry using a soft cloth.
• Oil on the skin can dull any diamond, so we recommend cleaning your pink diamond jewellery using an ultrasonic jewellery cleaning machine.
• If you believe your pink diamond jewellery requires further maintenance or repair, contact your preferred jeweller for a professional cleaning service.

We recommend cleaning your pink diamond jewellery at least once a year, however this can depend on how often you wear the piece.

Tips for Preserving the Beauty of Pink Diamonds

Understanding how to take care of diamond jewellery is important to protect its appearance. In the case of the rare, unique and extremely valuable pink diamond, regular care and proper storage will help to maintain the shimmering beauty of your jewellery and protect your investment. Here are our list of helpful hints for maintaining and preserving pink diamond jewellery:

• Avoid wearing diamond jewellery when exercising or completing rough work. While diamonds are generally quite durable, these activities put your diamond at risk of various factors that can impact its finish.
• Remove your jewellery before washing dishes or clothes by hand. While the pink diamond will not be harmed by the chemicals in these cleaning soaps, the mounting may be impacted.
• Don’t wear your pink diamond while swimming, as chlorine can affect the appearance of your piece.
• Keep your diamond away from cosmetics and cooking oils, as oil can dull the shine of a diamond. Soap and toothpaste, however, are safe and can be used as jewellery cleaners.
• Wrap each piece of diamond jewellery in its own soft cloth to avoid the possibility of contact or rubbing during storage.
• Take pink diamond jewellery to your jeweller annually to inspect for signs of wear and loose settings in rings especially.
