Diamonds are one of the hardest known substances on earth, but they are not indestructible! If you were to knock, or drop your diamond on a hard surface, it is possible to cause damage.

To keep your diamonds clean, a solution of cloudy ammonia diluted in water, and a soft brush to clean under the settings. Rinsing in clean water and then dry thoroughly with a tissue and then buff the gold with a gold polish cloth.

The settings holding your diamonds need to be checked on a regular basis, at least every 12 months, especially if they are being worn all the time. We always recommend that you take your jewellery off when doing household chores, gardening, cleaning and working with chemicals. This will help to look after your settings and make your jewellery last longer.

Every Hearts Desire Jeweller will inspect, clean, polish and report the condition of your Hearts Desire diamond jewellery, free of charge, at least once every 12 months.
