Care and Maintenance:
Dirt and grime can collect between the stones in your eternity ring, but they're easy to clean at home. Fill a bowl with mild dish soap and let your band soak for 10 to 15 minutes. Then use a soft brush, like a soft-bristled toothbrush, to gently scrub the gemstones. It's also a good idea to get your diamond ring professionally inspected about once a year. They can check to make sure the stones are secure and check for any issues.
