05 — Jewellery Care

Wear It Often. Care for It Well.

Labora Diamonds jewellery is meant to leave the jewellery box.

A little care can help keep your jewellery looking its best along the way.

Everyday Care

Put Jewellery On Last

Apply perfumes, lotions, cosmetics and hair products before putting on your jewellery where possible.

This can help reduce unnecessary product build-up on diamonds and metal surfaces.

Take It Off When Things Get Rough

Consider removing jewellery before activities that could expose it to impact, abrasion or harsh chemicals.

That may include:

• Gym workouts
• Heavy household cleaning
• Swimming
• Contact sports
• Gardening
• Manual work

Your jewellery is made to be worn.

It does not need to attend every activity with you.

Cleaning Diamond Jewellery

Over time, oils, lotions and everyday residue can collect around a diamond and reduce its visible sparkle.

For many jewellery pieces, gentle cleaning with lukewarm water, mild soap and a soft brush may help remove surface build-up.

Avoid aggressive scrubbing.

Rinse carefully and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.

For jewellery containing additional gemstones, delicate finishes or specialised settings, care requirements may differ.

For product-specific advice, contact Labora Diamonds before cleaning.

What Should I Avoid?

Avoid exposing jewellery unnecessarily to:

• Harsh household chemicals
• Chlorine
• Abrasive cleaning products
• Extreme impact
• Rough surfaces
• Unverified jewellery-cleaning solutions

Do not assume every jewellery cleaner is appropriate for every metal, gemstone or finish.

How Should I Store My Jewellery?

Give every piece a little space.

Jewellery can scratch other jewellery, and diamonds are particularly hard materials.

Store pieces individually or in separate compartments wherever possible.

Chains should ideally be stored carefully to reduce tangling.

And yes:

We know we normally tell you to take your diamonds out of the jewellery box.

They may return there occasionally.

Check Your Jewellery

Settings, clasps and chains experience normal wear over time.

Periodically inspect your jewellery for:

• Loose stones
• Bent prongs
• Damaged clasps
• Distorted settings
• Worn links
• Unusual movement

If something feels wrong, stop wearing the piece until it has been inspected.

Professional Cleaning & Care

A Little Care Goes a Long Way

Even jewellery made to be worn often deserves a little attention from time to time.

We recommend having your jewellery periodically inspected by a professional, particularly pieces you wear frequently.

An inspection can help identify loose settings, worn components or other signs of everyday wear before they become bigger concerns.

If you notice a loose stone, damaged clasp, bent setting or any unusual movement in your jewellery, we recommend removing the piece and having it inspected before wearing it again.

One Simple Rule

Wear your jewellery.

Just don’t forget to look after it.

Diamonds are meant to collect memories.

Not dust.
