	Diamond Care You should not wear your diamond jewelry when you are doing work that is considered rough, especially when you are using tools. A diamond, although it is considered one of the hardest substances on Earth, will chip or crack if it is hit with enough force at the right angle corresponding to its natural cleavage plane. When doing household chores, keep your diamond from coming into contact with harsh chemicals such as chlorine bleach, etc. Diamonds require cleaning from time to time, and the settings need maintenance so that the gemstone will not fall out because of some mechanical failure.  Take your diamond jewelry to a professional every year to make sure all is well on the setting.   Platinum is the material of choice over gold as it is stronger and more substantial.  While your diamond is in for maintenance, it will also get a professional cleaning and when you get it back, it will glisten.  | Back |
