Taking Care of your Wedding Rings Sets
Wedding Rings Sets are symbolic signs of a pair’s wedding, and they’ll be treated with the utmost care and respect. It horrifies me how crudely some folks treat their marriage bands, and it makes me cringe a little whenever I see folks manhandle their rings in these numerous ways:
Biting them
Wedding rings sets might be made of sterling gold or silver, making them tougher and more proof against damage, except for crying out loud do NOT bite into them! The habit will eventually wear down the ring’s surface, permanently damaging them over time.
Leaving them around
Yes, throw the 18 carat gold ring on the sofa. It just costs a measly thousand greenbacks. That’s just coins, and can easily be replaced in the blinking of an eye, right? Not if you are a regular Joe or Jane like me.
Wearing them to the pool
Rule number one when wearing jewelry. Never wear them to the pool, or in any body of water for what it’s worth. Chlorine, salt and minute particles all work in partnership to break down fine jewelry, and marriage rings are not exception. Take them off before taking a dip and you won’t have to worry about any lasting damage.
Tossing them with other jewelry
While marriage rings sets are usually difficult and sturdy, other finer jewellery aren’t the same. Carelessly mixing them in with other jewellery can lead to long-standing damage that will totally destroy a piece’s beauty in no time at all. Stick ‘em in tiny cotton or vinyl pouches, and your jewellery won’t scratch each other senseless.
