Your rings may be some of your most valued and emotionally important pieces of jewelry. Unfortunately, there may be some mistakes that can leave your rings more vulnerable to suffering damages or problems that could potentially result in their loss.

Insure The Ring Is Insured

Due to the high value of your ring, it is almost always worth the costs to purchase insurance that is designed to cover these valuable pieces of jewelry. This will protect you from loss in the event that your prized rings are destroyed or stolen or suffer other losses. While your homeowners insurance may provide some coverage for these instances, the value of your ring may potentially exceed the policy limits of the coverage. By purchasing a policy that is specially designed for these items, you can make sure that you have enough coverage to pay for the value of these rings.

Use A Professional Service To Adjust The Ring Size

At some point, your ring may need to have its size adjusted. This can be the case both for instances where weight gain occurs as well as individuals finding that their fingers swell slightly as they age. While this can make it more difficult or even impossible for you to wear your rings, you can use a professional service to have the ring's size adjusted so that it will still fit your finger. Many ring retailers are able to offer this type of adjustment on-site so that you will be able to avoid needing to make a separate trip to a jeweler. Also, these retailers will have sizing systems that can help you to ensure that you know the exact size that your ring finger will need.

Regularly Clean The Ring

Rings can get extremely dirty due to the grime, dirt, and oil that can be transferred from your hand onto the ring. Regularly cleaning the ring will be one of the most important steps that you can take to keep the ring in good condition. While cleaning the ring is an important type of care that you should take, you will need to be careful when choosing a cleaning solution for your ring. Ideally, you will want to use a specialized cleaner that is designed for use on the type of metal that is used in the band. Unfortunately, some of the crevices in the ring can be extremely difficult to clean. Every few years, you may want to have these rings professionally cleaned so that these difficult areas can be thoroughly cleaned.
