Why you Should Inspect your Jewelry?

When wearing jewelry every day, it is subject to accidental bumps and bumps that can damage it. But when was the last time you had your rings and other items professionally inspected? Let's see why jewelry inspections are important and how often you should have them.

What does a jewelry inspection usually include? In most cases, a jeweler will check the safety of your items, clean them, and polish them as needed.

Checking the safety of an item is the main reason for inspecting jewelry.

The jeweler will inspect your setting for wear, bends, or broken prongs.

Your stones will be checked to see if they are loose, and if so, they will be tightened. Your item will be inspected for worn and broken parts.

In addition to inspecting your jewelry for damage, a jeweler can also clean your items, removing grime from places in your home that you may not be able to reach.

Cleaning is not only good for the look of your jewelry, but it also helps keep your jewelry in good condition.

When dirt builds up in your parts, it causes them to wear out faster by causing extra friction.

Dirt can also hide broken parts of jewelry that you may not know there is a problem with until your jewelry falls apart.

After your jewelry has been inspected and cleaned, it can also be polished. This is optional and you should decide if you need it.

Remember, if your jewelry is made of softer metals like gold or silver, you shouldn't polish it too often, as the process can wear away the outer layers of the metal.

If your item is plated, polishing can remove the plating and you may need to re-coat to restore its finish.

It's good to have your jewelry professionally inspected every once in a while, as it may have issues you're not aware of. You don't want to wait until it's too late because if your item falls apart while you're wearing it, you could lose your gem.

For example, worn prongs or other damage to your setting can loosen your stones and cause them to fall out. That's why you should look at jewelry inspections as a precaution against bigger problems that may arise in the future.

Once a year is an absolute minimum you should check your jewelry.

Of course, it also depends on how often you wear a certain item of clothing: Items you rarely wear don't need to be checked as often.

However, jewelry you wear regularly should be checked at least two to three times a year.

It's also a good idea to inspect a piece of jewelry after you've hit it hard: you never know which part of it might be bent or broken by the impact.
