Tips for Keeping Your Bridal Jewelry Bright and Brilliant

December 20th, 2017

Your premier all-in-one jewelry retailer, at BENARI JEWELERS we are committed to doing what it takes to ensure our customers a lifetime of bridal jewelry satisfaction.

And to help you keep your bridal jewelry beautiful for an eternity, here are some tips from the bridal jewelry experts at BENARI JEWELERS on how to keep your engagement rings and wedding bands shining for years to come.

Tip #1: Take it Off!

Believe us, no one understands how excited you are about your new bling than BENARI JEWELERS. While it may be tempting to want to wear your engagement ring or wedding band as much as you possibly can, sometimes the best thing for your ring is to take it off.

Hands-on activities such as gardening, sports, or tactile on-the-job duties are moments where the chance for your piece to be hurt, tarnished, or even, heaven forbid, lost is at its very greatest. We suggest that when you find yourself participating in these sort of activities, remove your bridal and wedding jewelry in order to keep it somewhere safe and out of harm’s way.

One side note, if you plan on storing your engagement ring or wedding band in your normal jewelry box, be sure to place your rings in a small box or pouch to protect them from bumping against other pieces and being scratched.

Tip #2: Keep it Clean!

It’s a fact of life that your rings are going to get dirty with normal everyday wear, and while removing your wedding jewelry is a great way to keep your pieces safe, gentle semi-regular cleanings are also a quick and easy way to retain that brilliant bridal shine.

While Elizabeth Taylor reportedly used gin to clean her extravagant jewels, gently scrubbing your ring with a few drops of soap is typically all you need to remove the dirt and oil that will naturally accumulate. Experts also suggesting soaking your rings in warm, soapy water, as well as recommend avoiding using abrasive products such as baking soda or toothpaste for cleaning.

Tip #3: Plan Regular Professional Inspections and Cleanings

In addition to at-home cleanings, the bridal experts at BENARI JEWELERS also strongly suggest making regular or semi-regular ring inspection appointments with skilled jewelry professional.

Available now in the Exton and Newtown Square locations of BENARI JEWELERS, our expert team utilizes cutting-edge cleaning technologies to ensure that your piece is as pristine and free from blemishes as absolutely possible. Additionally, our team will also closely examine every inch of your piece to ensure that there is no invisible cracks, loose stones, or other issues that might require immediate attention.

Tip #4: Insure Your Ring!

When it comes to engagement rings, wedding bands, and other sentimentally-charged fine jewelry pieces, the last thing we want to think about is what we’d do if the piece was hurt, lost, or stolen. This is why we always strongly suggest that our customers invest in ring insurance as soon as they leave our store.

Typically covering your pieces in the event of theft or damage, most insurance companies are able to add jewelry insurance to your already existing homeowner or renter’s insurance, making it simple to get the peace-of-mind every jewelry owner deserves.

Please note: Most insurance companies do require annual re-appraisals to determine the sort of coverage your rings deserve. Luckily, at BENARI JEWELERS we also offer quick and on-site appraisal services in both our Philadelphia area showrooms.
