Every metal in the world will scratch with wear and tear. The only way to avoid scratches appearing will be to leave the ring in the box… which is a ridiculous suggestion.
Even platinum which is naturally a heavier and harder metal than gold will be prone to scratches and scuffs.
The diamond, which is the centre of attention can and should be cleaned with your toothbrush (see toothbrush blog!) and that will always sparkle.
The scratches and scuffs can be removed by a professional jewellery polisher like Alan Bick. If you have any concerns regarding your ring, please bring the ring back to us and we will polish it for you without charge.
Bare in mind though, every time you polish your engagement ring, you are removing a small slither of metal in order to remove the scratches. Do this multiple times can leave the ring looking thin and weak in places. We certainly recommend you bring your ring back to us every couple of years for a routine service check and polish, but not every time when a scratch appears.
For advice, contact our dedicated sales or book a private or video appointment to discuss further.
