Hello! Just thought this was an interesting thing I realised whilst at beautiful wedding this weekend. I’m really good a taking all my rings of as soon as I get home because I like to avoid any extra wear and tear but camping in my van and keeping them all on over night including my big pearl ring I was quite cautious of the regular hand sanitising sessions I had given my rings and was wondering about the effects on my metals and stones especially the pearl. I have just read that it’s is best to take all your rings off and let the sanitiser dry. But how does that work if you don’t sanitise your rings too?? Anyway I personally recommend taking your rings of when you are just at home anyway. And if you’ve been out and about sanitising, when you get the chance take all your rings off and clean them in warm (not hot) water with a very mild natural dishwashing liquid. You can use an old soft toothbrush to get behind stones and crevices but never toothpaste! And pat dry. Don’t soak anything although diamonds should be fine if you have to. Check out my care instructions on my website www.laurenharrisgoldandsilversmith.com.au for further care instructions. I will try and find some info to post if I can. Other than that I wish everyone all the best! Stay well and try to keep smiling! We will get through this together as best we can️Xoxoxo
