Question

How can I prevent my gold ring from scratching?

Answer

Gold is one of the most beautiful and lustrous metals, however, it is also malleable, which means it is pliable and can be scratched.

The wonderful thing is that gold can always be polished!  You may clean your ring as often as you desire with a mild solution of water, ammonia and a mild detergent.  Since each polishing removes a microscopic amount of metal from your ring, I suggest professionally polishing your ring no more than four or five times a year.

If you are close by, please stop by and I will polish your ring to look like brand new for free.

Wishing you a sparkling day!
