During the course of wearing diamond jewelry, the diamonds will lose brilliance and shine. When we wear them, they get smudged or soiled. Even when not wearing them, they tend to collect dust. Get back that brilliance and shine by learning how to clean diamond jewelry. All it takes is a few minutes and a little care to restore your diamonds to their full luster. diamonds by kathy ireland
