• What Does It Mean to Have Your Rings Polished Versus Cleaned?
  Cleaning jewelry involves the removal of dirt, oils, and minor impurities that can make your jewelry look dull over time. Polishing, on the other hand, is a more thorough process that eliminates surface scratches and restores your jewelry’s original shine. Our professional jewelry cleaning services at Houston Jewelry Buyers ensure your pieces retain their shine and look as good as new.

• Should I Take My Ring Off Every Night?
  Though crafted to last, jewelry can be susceptible to damage and wear. Taking off your ring every night helps avoid potential damage caused by unconscious actions during sleep. This simple practice significantly contributes to the longevity of your jewelry, keeping it in optimal condition for longer.
• What’s the Best Way to Care for My Jewelry?
  Regular cleaning, timely repairs, and proper storage are essential to maintaining your jewelry’s shine and value. Our experts at Houston Jewelry Buyers offer a range of services, from watch repair to jewelry repair, and provide guidance on how to clean jewelry at home.
