CARE OF 14K GOLD JEWELRY

14K gold jewelry is designed for everyday wear and offers an excellent balance of beauty, durability, and lasting value. While 14K gold is more resistant to scratches and wear than higher-karat gold, proper care will help maintain its shine and keep it looking its best for years to come.

Everyday Care Tips
  • Remove jewelry before swimming, exercising, gardening, or household cleaning.
  • Avoid direct contact with perfumes, lotions, hairspray, bleach, chlorine, and other harsh chemicals.
  • Put on jewelry after applying beauty products to minimize residue buildup.
  • Store pieces separately in a soft pouch or jewelry box to help prevent scratches.
  • Wipe jewelry gently with a soft microfiber cloth after wearing to remove oils and everyday residue.
How to Clean 14K Gold Jewelry

To restore shine and remove buildup:

  • Fill a small bowl with warm water and add a few drops of mild dish soap.
  • Soak your jewelry for 5–10 minutes.
  • Gently clean with a soft-bristled brush, paying attention to crevices and clasps.
  • Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
  • Pat dry with a soft, lint-free cloth and allow the piece to air dry completely before storing.
What to Avoid
  • Toothpaste
  • Baking soda
  • Abrasive cleaners or polishing compounds

CARE OF STERLING SILVER JEWELRY

Sterling silver is one of the world's most treasured precious metals, loved for its brilliant white shine, timeless elegance, and exceptional versatility. At DEVATA, every sterling silver piece is crafted from genuine 925 sterling silver, making it a beautiful addition to your jewelry collection that can be enjoyed for years to come.

Like all precious metals, sterling silver naturally reacts with oxygen, moisture, and sulfur in the air. Over time, this process may cause a light layer of tarnish to develop. The good news is that tarnish is completely normal and can be easily removed with proper care.

Everyday Care Tips

A few simple habits will help keep your sterling silver jewelry looking bright and beautiful.

  • Put your jewelry on after applying cosmetics, perfume, lotion, sunscreen, or hair products. Over time, these products will build residue on your jewelry.
  • Remove jewelry before swimming, showering, exercising, or using household cleaning products. While it may not instantly damage your jewelry, always keep your jewelry dry to maintain longer lifetime.
  • You may wear your sterling silver jewelry during workout and get it wet occasionally, however, it’s recommended to dry it with cloth towel.
  • Wipe each piece with a soft microfiber or polishing cloth after wearing to remove natural skin oils and residue.
  • When you are not wearing your jewelry, store it inside DEVATA pouch to help minimize tarnishing and less exposure to open air.
  • Store your jewelry in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity.
  • Keep each piece in its own soft pouch or jewelry box to help minimize scratches and exposure to air.

It is normal to see dark residue on the cloth and become blackened eventually which is a sign that the polishing cloth is working effectively.

CARE OF LAB GROWN DIAMOND JEWELRY

Lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds, offering the same brilliance, hardness, and durability as natural diamonds. Our lab-grown diamonds are grown using advanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) technology, producing diamonds with the same physical, chemical, and optical properties as mined diamonds.

Although diamonds are one of the hardest natural materials on Earth, everyday wear can allow oils, lotions, and dust to build up on the surface, reducing their sparkle. With proper care and regular cleaning, your lab-grown diamond jewelry will continue to shine beautifully for years to come.

Everyday Care Tips

A few simple habits can help preserve the brilliance of both your diamond and its precious metal setting.

  • Put your jewelry on after applying perfume, lotion, sunscreen, makeup, and hairspray.
  • Remove your jewelry before exercising, swimming, gardening, or performing household chores.
  • Avoid exposing your jewelry to chlorine, bleach, and other harsh household chemicals.
  • Store each piece separately in a soft jewelry pouch or lined jewelry box to prevent scratches and tangling.
  • Gently wipe your jewelry with a soft microfiber cloth after each wear to remove natural oils and residue.
How to Clean Lab-Grown Diamond Jewelry

Regular cleaning restores your diamond's natural brilliance.

  • Fill a small bowl with warm water and a few drops of mild dish soap.
  • Soak your jewelry for 5–10 minutes.
  • Use a soft-bristled toothbrush to gently clean around the diamond and underneath the setting, where dirt can accumulate.
  • Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
  • Pat dry with a soft, lint-free cloth and allow the jewelry to air dry completely before wearing or storing.

Cleaning your jewelry every month or more frequently if worn daily to maintain its maximum sparkle.

What to Avoid

To protect both the diamond and its setting, avoid:

  • Bleach, chlorine, and harsh household chemicals
  • Abrasive cleaners or polishing compounds
  • Toothpaste or baking soda
  • Rough brushes or abrasive cloths
  • Strong impacts or dropping your jewelry onto hard surfaces

While diamonds are incredibly durable, a hard blow can still chip a diamond or damage the precious metal setting.

Caring for the Setting

Your diamond is securely held in place by carefully crafted prongs or a bezel setting. Over time, normal wear can gradually loosen these components. We recommend inspecting your jewelry periodically for loose stones, worn prongs, or signs of damage. If you notice anything unusual, discontinue wearing the piece until it has been professionally inspected.

Professional Cleaning & Inspection

For jewelry worn frequently, we recommend professional cleaning and inspection once a year. This helps maintain your jewelry's brilliance while ensuring that all settings remain secure for everyday wear.

Designed to Sparkle for a Lifetime

At DEVATA, every lab-grown diamond is chosen for its exceptional beauty, brilliance, and quality. With proper care, your lab-grown diamond jewelry will continue to sparkle for generations, becoming a timeless piece you'll enjoy every day.
