There are also some of the precious metals used to make the ring that need special care and attention. If in doubt speak, to the jeweller and ask their opinion on how best to approach cleaning the ring. A reputable jeweller will know any special treatments that are required and may offer their own services to clean the ring for you.
Once you’re happy and you know how best to clean the ring, get into the habit of inspecting the ring for signs of damage such as cracks, if there is a loose diamond, missing details or damaged prongs. If you clean a damaged ring is can create further problems. If you do find some flaws, get a reputable jeweller to repair it to stop problems in their tracks.
