Jewelry Care
Keep your pieces sparkling for a lifetime
At CVD Jewels, every piece is crafted with precision and love. With the right care, your lab-grown diamond and moissanite jewelry will retain its brilliance and beauty for generations. Follow our simple care guide to keep your pieces looking their best.
Daily Care
Everyday Wear Tips
A few simple habits can go a long way in preserving the beauty of your jewelry:
- Remove jewelry before swimming, bathing, or exercising.
- Avoid contact with perfumes, lotions, hairsprays, and household chemicals.
- Put on your jewelry last — after applying makeup and fragrance.
- Remove rings before washing hands or doing household chores.
Cleaning
How To Clean Your Jewelry
Regular cleaning keeps your pieces brilliant and free from buildup:
- Soak your jewelry in warm water with a few drops of mild dish soap for 10–15 minutes.
- Gently scrub with a soft-bristle toothbrush to remove dirt from settings and crevices.
- Rinse thoroughly under warm running water.
- Pat dry with a soft, lint-free cloth — avoid paper towels as they can scratch.
- Allow to air dry completely before storing.
Avoid ultrasonic cleaners for pieces with delicate settings or gemstones other than diamonds.
Storage
Storing Your Jewelry
Proper storage prevents scratches, tangles, and damage:
- Store each piece separately in a soft pouch or lined jewelry box.
- Keep jewelry away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Store necklaces flat or hang them to prevent tangling.
- Use anti-tarnish strips in your jewelry box to protect silver pieces.
Lab-Grown Diamonds
Caring for Lab-Grown Diamond Jewelry
Lab-grown diamonds share the same physical and chemical properties as natural diamonds. They are extremely durable (rated 10 on the Mohs scale) but still require care:
- Clean regularly as diamonds attract grease and oils, which can dull their sparkle.
- Avoid hard impacts — diamonds can chip if struck at the right angle.
- Have prongs and settings checked by a jeweler once a year.
Moissanite
Caring for Moissanite Jewelry
Moissanite is one of the hardest gemstones (rated 9.25 on the Mohs scale) and is highly resistant to scratching and heat. To keep it brilliant:
- Clean with warm soapy water and a soft brush as needed.
- Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaners.
- Store separately to prevent contact with harder gemstones.
Gold & Metal Care
Caring for Gold Settings
Whether your piece is yellow gold, white gold, or rose gold, proper care keeps the metal lustrous:
- Avoid exposure to chlorine, bleach, and harsh cleaning agents.
- Polish gently with a soft jewelry cloth to restore shine.
- White gold may require re-plating (rhodium) over time — consult a jeweler.
- Remove gold jewelry before entering pools or hot tubs.
