Valentine's Day is just around the corner and the celebration of love happens to be one of the biggest days for marriage proposals.
Every February, online searches skyrocket for people looking up ideas to pop the question, but if you're planning on flashing an engagement ring to your loved one, you better make sure that it's sparkling.
While there are many home remedies that claim to keep silver clean, one expert has said that these supposed tips may actually be damaging your jewellery. Certain natural solutions can actually tarnish jewels in different ways, which is why Robert Cuomo, managing director at Hatton Jewellers, has debunked some of the biggest cleaning myths.
He advised against using substances like baking soda, ketchup and even beer with your rings, which are all effective natural cleaners. Instead, he recommends seeking professional help.
“We recommend getting jewellery cleaned at least every six months either professionally or at home to keep it looking new. There are professional polishing services available that will ensure your jewellery is safely cleaned and protected against any damage," Robert said.
"Regularly checking for warning signs of vulnerability in your jewellery, such as checking for loose stones or prongs is vital. This may prevent the need to spend more money to replace lost stones later down the line.”
Here are the homemade cleaners that you should never use on your rings, according to Robert Cuomo.
Vinegar is slightly acidic which may cause damage to plated jewellery and bicarbonate of soda can be abrasive which may scratch precious metals.
While beer may be a good solution to make your gold sparkle, alcohol can actually dim the sparkle of a diamond.
