Caring for your ring | Luna by Jaimin

A ring worn every day meets soap, lotion, dust and knocks. A little care keeps the stones bright and the setting secure.

Everyday habits

Take your ring off for the gym, gardening, housework and anything with cleaning products.
Put it on after lotion, perfume and hairspray, not before: they leave a film that dulls the stones.
Store each piece on its own, in its box or a soft pouch, so harder stones cannot scratch softer metal or stones.
Every so often, check that the stones do not move and that the prongs still hold them firmly. If anything feels loose, stop wearing the ring and write to us.

These stones are hard (on the Mohs scale, 9.25 for moissanite, 10 for lab-grown diamond and 8 to 8.5 for cubic zirconia) and clean easily.

Soak the ring for a few minutes in warm water with a drop of mild washing-up liquid.
Brush gently with a soft toothbrush, especially behind the stone, where grease collects.
Rinse in clean water and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Avoid ultrasonic cleaners for rings with pavé or many small accent stones: over time, the vibration can loosen small stones.

These stones are softer and more sensitive than moissanite.

Clean them only with lukewarm water, a little mild soap and a soft cloth.
Never use an ultrasonic or steam cleaner, and keep them away from heat and household chemicals.
Take the ring off for anything that could knock or scratch the stone.

Gold (10K, 14K and 18K): the chlorine in pools, spas and bleach can attack gold alloys. Take your ring off before swimming or cleaning.
925 sterling silver: silver darkens in contact with air and moisture. A silver polishing cloth restores the shine; a closed pouch slows the tarnish.
950 platinum: with wear, platinum takes on a soft satin finish called patina. Some people love it; a jeweller can polish it back to a mirror shine.

If you are unsure how to clean a ring, or something looks wrong, write to us before trying anything else.
