Diamonds are a girl's best friend and they're no stranger to men either. Because they are so expensive, knowing how to care for them properly is an important part of owning them.

To clean your diamond, prepare a bowl of warm water and add a gentle dish soap. Stir the water and soap until it becomes sudsy. Soak the piece of diamond jewelry for about five minutes. After the jewelry has soaked, brush it with a soft bristled toothbrush to get the dirt off. After you have scrubbed the piece, rinse it with clean water and let it dry on a paper towel or in a colander.

In order to avoid damage to your diamond and to prevent your diamond from becoming excessively dirty, avoid wearing your diamond when cooking, doing yard work and performing other harsh activities. With proper care and maintenance, your diamond should last you forever.

Another option is to buy a Sonic Jewelry cleaner, it's a small machine that you fill with water along with a soap solution, the machine vibrates at high speeds and vibrates any grime/dirt off of your jewelry- Remember, NO pearls in the Sonic Cleaner!

The processes suggested are good ones but I personally feel if you want to keep the diamond sparkle and glow. You need to clean the diamond on regular basis and only with wet cloth. Regular cleaning will never allow dust particle or chemicals to settle on the surface and hence there will not be any need to go for such expensive techniques.

-To add to the above comments, if you decide to go with a Sonic or Ultra Sonic cleaner, be sure there are no loose stones in your jewelry. If there are, there is a good chance they will come out because of the vibrations. Also, do not put pearls, emeralds, aquamarine, tanzanite or any other soft stones or gems in as the heat will crack them.

-Other at home remedies which I've found to be quite common and I definitely do not recommend are brushing jewelery with a tooth brush and tooth paste. Gold is very soft and the gritty texture of the paste will scratch it. And, do not soak jewelry in anything other than a mild detergent as stated in the previous answer. Some chemicals will eat right through the gold setting.

There is no easy answer you can always loose a diamond no matter how many precautions you take. However, by keeping it clean (free from grease etc.) it will have less chance to fall out. Also every couple of years it is smart to bring it in to a jewler and have them check it out to make sure it isn't loose.
