Storing your diamond and precious stone rings

We recommend that all diamond and precious stone rings are stored individually in there boxes or soft cloth pouches when not being worn to prevent the diamond or diamonds from scratching or dulling other jewellery

How to keep your rings sparkling


Gold is tarnish-resistant, but it can get dirty. Diamonds and precious stones dull over a period of time with soaps and even natural skin oils that we use regularly can cover your jewellery and cut down their brilliance. Commercial jewellery cleaners are available to clean your jewellery, most often water and a mild detergent is sufficient to restore the brilliance, a soft tooth brush helps to gently clean intricate designs and stones, dry and polish your gold jewellery with a soft cloth after cleaning.
 

 

Peace of mind

We keep a Photographic library of all the rings if ever needed for identification, for lost or stolen insurance claims. This has proven to be the single, most important thing you can do, to recover your valuables.

 

Diamonds

The weight of a diamond is measured in carats. A carat is divided in 100 points so that a diamond of 50 points equals 1/2 a carat. A round brilliant cut diamond of 1 carat has an approximate diameter of 6.6mm.The word carat originates from the Greek word keration, referring to the shape of the seedpods of the carob tree. The seeds are small and uniform in size and weight; therefore, they were a standard for weighing gemstones in early times.

Sapphires


The most common colour is Blue, but can be colourless, pink, orange, yellow, green, purple, and black. Burmese sapphires have a deep blue that is intense and velvety. These sapphires are not often seen on the market today. Sri Lankan sapphires are the most common, with a wide range of colours from very light to dark blue. Other producers of blue sapphire are Australia, Madagascar, Thailand, Cambodia, and Montana.

Fine emeralds are even more valuable than diamonds. Emeralds are fascinating gemstones. Colombian emeralds are among the world's most beautiful. They have the most wonderful, most intense and most radiant green. Quality emeralds are also found in India, South Africa, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Russia, and Zimbabwe.  Inclusions are tolerated.
