the thing!<br />
Once you’ve got that precious engagement ring on your finger, you’ll<br />
probably never want to take it off – but, if you want to keep it in<br />
pristine condition, you need to take care of it. Fine jewellers<br />
Charles Nobel of New Milton advise that there are some times<br />
when you should definitely not be wearing your engagement ring.<br />
When you’re getting ready to go out: moisturisers, lotions, cosmetics, hair<br />
spray and perfume can all damage or tarnish your ring and cause a build-up<br />
of grime. Make sure your hands are completely clean and dry before you<br />
replace your ring.<br />
The same goes for cooking and cleaning. Not only can you easily distort your<br />
ring on hard surfaces, like kitchen tops and bathroom counters, but you can<br />
also do serious damage to the stone and setting. You can even potentially<br />
alter the colour if you expose it to harsh chemicals like bleach and ammonia.<br />
Leave your ring at home when you go to the gym or participate in sporting<br />
activities. Pressure on the metal could change its shape and bend the claws<br />
that hold the gemstone in place.<br />
And as for swimming: the cold water of the sea will shrink your fingers,<br />
making it much easier for your ring to disappear without trace – and it’s no<br />
better in the pool, where the chlorine can damage it, or even in the shower,<br />
where oily soaps could dull its sparkle and exfoliating soaps may scratch it.<br />
If your engagement ring does get dirty, you can gently rinse it with hot water<br />
and dishwashing liquid, then dry it with a cotton or linen towel before using<br />
a clean polishing cloth for a sparkling finish.<br />
Alternatively, Charles Nobel will clean it<br />
professionally for you.<br />
