How to Clean Diamond and Moissanite Jewelry

Set in Sterling Silver or Solid Gold

Proper care keeps your moissanite and diamond jewelry looking brilliant for years. While both gemstones are extremely durable, oils, lotions, and everyday buildup can dull their sparkle, especially when paired with sterling silver or solid gold settings. Follow this simple, safe cleaning guide to maintain their luxury finish.

What You’ll Need

Warm water

Mild dish soap (no harsh chemicals)

A soft-bristle toothbrush or makeup brush

A lint-free microfiber cloth

Step-by-Step Cleaning Method (Safe for Home Use)

1. Prepare a Gentle Soak
Mix a few drops of mild dish soap into a bowl of warm water. Avoid hot water, which can stress certain settings.

2. Soak the Jewelry
Place your moissanite or diamond piece in the solution for 10–15 minutes. This loosens dirt, oils, and residue trapped under the stone.

3. Gently Brush
Using a soft toothbrush, lightly brush around the stone, prongs, and underside where buildup is most common. Be gentle—especially with pavé or delicate settings.

4. Rinse Thoroughly
Rinse under clean, lukewarm water to remove all soap. Always rinse over a bowl or strainer to prevent accidental loss.

5. Dry & Polish
Pat dry with a microfiber cloth, then gently polish to restore shine.
