Taking care of your engagement ring will ensure that not only does it look its best before and during the wedding, but that it remains a treasure that can be passed down from generation to generation. With practical habits, regular cleaning, and careful storage, caring for your engagement ring will become easy.

• Take off your ring before taking part in a sport or other vigorous activity that could involve sharp blows.

• Always keep your ring in the same, safe place every day to avoid accidentally misplacing it.

• Clean your ring at least once a week to retain its dazzling look just like the day you first put it on.

• Remove your engagement ring before beginning housecleaning or yard work that involves harsh chemicals or rough equipment.

• Have your ring examined at least twice a year by a qualified jeweler to guarantee the setting is secure.

• Have an accurate appraisal of your engagement ring updated every few years in case of loss.

• Insure your precious engagement ring against theft, loss, or accidental damage.
