Client Care

Caring for Your Jewellery

Simple care, careful storage and periodic professional inspection help preserve the beauty and integrity of every R Rumi Diamond creation.

  • Wear With Awareness

    Remove jewellery before activities that may expose it to impact, pressure or abrasion.

  • Keep It Separate

    Store pieces individually to prevent scratching, tangling and contact damage.

  • Clean Gently

    Use mild methods suited to the specific metal, diamond, gemstone and setting.

  • Inspect Regularly

    Check clasps, prongs and stone movement; arrange professional inspection when needed.

Everyday Care

Jewellery on last, jewellery off first. Apply perfume, skincare and hair products, let them dry, then put your jewellery on — and wipe each piece gently before storing it.

  • Remove jewellery before exercise, swimming, showering and household cleaning
  • Take rings off before gardening, heavy lifting and handling harsh chemicals
  • Perfume, cosmetics and hair products can leave residue — let them dry before wearing jewellery
  • Sleeping in delicate pieces may catch or bend them

At Home

A Gentle Cleaning Routine

  1. 01Prepare lukewarm water with a little mild, non-abrasive soap
  2. 02Let the jewellery soak briefly
  3. 03Brush very softly around the setting and underside
  4. 04Rinse over a secured bowl — never an open drain
  5. 05Dry with a clean, lint-free cloth
  6. 06Let it dry fully before storage

This general method may not be suitable for every gemstone, finish, adhesive-set component, watch or complex high-jewellery piece. Review your product-specific guidance or contact Client Care when uncertain.

What Not to Use

  • Bleach and chlorine
  • Abrasive powders and toothpaste
  • Rough brushes and metal scouring materials
  • Unapproved chemical dips
  • Household solvents
  • Excessive heat
  • Steam or ultrasonic cleaning without confirming suitability
  • Paper towels that leave fibres or abrade
  • Cleaning over an open sink drain
  • Jewellery piled together while drying

Care by Material

Preserving Diamond Brilliance

Diamonds — lab-grown and natural alike — are exceptionally durable, yet edges and points can still chip on hard impact, and oils or lotions dull visible brilliance. Care depends on the setting and construction, not the diamond's origin.

  • Clean gently with mild soap and a very soft brush
  • Protect exposed edges and pointed tips (pear, marquise, heart) from knocks
  • Check prongs and settings for movement or snagging
  • Store separately — a diamond can scratch other jewellery

Care by Jewellery Category

Rings

Rings take the most impact and chemical exposure. Remove before heavy manual tasks, check centre-stone and pavé settings, and never attempt resizing at home.

Earrings

Check posts, backs, hinges and clasps. Keep pairs together but separated from other pieces, and never wear damaged backs.

Necklaces & Pendants

Store chains flat or hanging individually with clasps closed to prevent knots. Check jump rings and connections periodically.

Bracelets & Bangles

Inspect clasps, safety mechanisms and flexible links. Store tennis bracelets flat, and never force rigid bangles.

Brooches

Check pins, hinges and catches. Avoid pressure on delicate garments and store with the pin secured.

High Jewellery

Statement pieces deserve specialist handling — we recommend professional cleaning and inspection rather than home methods.

Store Every Piece Individually

  • Individual fabric-lined compartments or soft pouches
  • Close chains and clasps before storage
  • Separate diamonds from softer stones
  • Dry, stable conditions — never damp bathrooms
  • Away from prolonged direct sunlight where relevant
  • Secure, out of reach of children and pets

Travelling With Jewellery

  • Use individual travel cases; keep chains and earrings separated
  • Carry high-value pieces per airline and insurance requirements — never unattended luggage
  • Keep invoices or certificates where required for customs or insurance
  • Photograph pieces and keep an item list
  • Confirm hotel-safe and insurance limitations
  • Inspect jewellery after travel

When to Pause Wearing a Piece

Handle the piece gently and arrange inspection if movement or sound is noticed. Stop wearing it and contact Client Care if you see:

  • Stone movement or rattling
  • A lifted, missing or bent prong
  • A loose clasp or broken chain
  • Sharp edges or visible bending
  • A damaged hinge
  • A gemstone chip
  • A sudden change in fit
  • Repeated snagging on fabric
  • Missing pavé stones

A Thoughtful Maintenance Rhythm

After wear
Wipe gently, inspect visually, store separately.
Monthly
Check frequently worn pieces; review clasps and settings; clean suitable pieces gently.
Before important occasions
Inspect in advance; arrange professional cleaning where required; confirm fit and clasps.
Periodically
Professional inspection, timed to how often and how actively each piece is worn.

Frequently worn rings, pavé jewellery and flexible diamond pieces may benefit from more frequent professional inspection than occasional-wear jewellery.

Care, Service and Warranty

Normal Care

Routine cleaning, inspection and responsible wear — yours to enjoy at home.

Paid Aftercare

Wear-related polishing, resizing, damage repair or replacement outside warranty coverage.

Manufacturing Warranty

Eligible manufacturing defects, covered under the published Warranty Policy.

Warranty Policy

Normal wear is not automatically a manufacturing defect — inspection determines eligibility. We recommend contacting R Rumi Diamond before allowing another party to resize, repair, polish or alter your jewellery; previous work may affect what services can be safely performed and how a later warranty assessment is completed.

Care Questions

Lukewarm water, a little mild soap, a very soft brush around the setting, a careful rinse over a secured bowl, then dry with a lint-free cloth. Check your product-specific guidance first.
