Jewelry Care & Maintenance Guide

Because your lab grown diamond deserves a lifetime of sparkle.

Caring for Your Lab Grown Diamond Jewelry

Your lab grown diamond jewelry is designed to last a lifetime — but even the most durable stones and metals need regular care to maintain their brilliance.
With proper cleaning, safe storage, and periodic inspections, your jewelry will continue to look as stunning as the day you proposed.

Why Lab Grown Diamonds Need Care Too

Lab grown diamonds are real diamonds — identical to mined ones in beauty, durability, and hardness. However, over time, daily wear can cause oils, lotions, and dirt to dull their shine or loosen their settings.
Regular cleaning and care ensure that:
  • Your diamond retains its maximum brilliance.
  • Your ring remains secure and damage-free.
  • Your investment continues to look impressive and new.

    Daily Care Tips

    ✋
    Remove Before Physical Activity
    Take off your ring before working out, cleaning, or using harsh chemicals.
    Even though diamonds are hard, they can still chip or loosen if struck with enough force.
    🧴
    Avoid Lotions, Perfumes, and Hair Products
    These can leave a film over the diamond, dulling its sparkle. Always put on jewelry last when getting ready.
    💧
    Keep Away from Harsh Chemicals
    Household cleaners, bleach, or chlorine can weaken metal settings over time — especially gold and platinum.
    💤
    Remove Before Sleeping
    This prevents accidental prong bending, scratching, or snagging on fabrics while you sleep.

    Cleaning Your Jewelry at Home

    Cleaning your ring at home is simple and safe if done correctly.
    🧼

    What You'll Need:

  • Mild dish soap
  • Warm water
  • Soft-bristle toothbrush or a lint-free cloth
    • 🪞

    Steps:

    1
    Mix a few drops of mild dish soap with warm (not hot) water.
    2
    Soak your jewelry for 15–20 minutes.
    3
    Gently brush around the stone and setting to remove dirt and oil.
    4
    Rinse thoroughly under lukewarm running water.
    5
    Dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.
    ⚠️
    Avoid ultrasonic or steam cleanersunless recommended by your jeweler — they can sometimes loosen pavé or halo-set stones.

    Professional Maintenance & Inspections

    Even the most secure ring settings can shift over time, especially with daily wear.
    We recommend scheduling a professional inspection every 6–12 months to check for:
  • Loose prongs or side stones
  • Worn metal or thin bands
  • Scratches or dents on the ring's surface

    • At Diamond Lab, we proudly offer:

    Complimentary lifetime inspections and cleanings
    100% Center Stone Replacement Guarantee
    100% Side Stone Replacement Guarantee
    If a stone ever becomes loose or lost due to normal wear, we'll replace it — at no cost to you with our purchase upgrade option.

    Proper Storage

    When not wearing your jewelry:
    Store it in a soft pouch or a lined jewelry box.
    Keep pieces separate to prevent scratching between metals or stones.
    Avoid humidity and direct sunlight, which can affect certain metals over time.
    For travel, use individual jewelry pouches or hard cases to prevent your ring from moving around.

    Metal-Specific Care

    Different metals require slightly different care routines:
    Metal Type
    Care Tips
    Platinum
    Extremely durable but may develop a soft patina over time — this is natural and can be polished professionally if desired.

    Travel & Storage Insurance Tips

    When traveling with your jewelry:
    Pack your jewelry in your carry-on, not checked luggage.
    Keep it in a padded jewelry case or box with individual compartments.
    Consider insuring your engagement ring with a policy that covers loss, theft, or damage (many insurers require IGI or GIA certification, which we provide).

    How to Spot When Your Jewelry Needs Professional Attention

    Bring your jewelry in for inspection if you notice:
  • The center stone feels loose or shifts when touched.
  • Prongs appear bent, worn, or uneven.
  • The ring snags on fabrics (often a sign of loose stones).
  • Visible scratches, dents, or dullness.
    • Addressing these early helps prevent more costly repairs later.
