Regular check-up to avoid looseness 定期檢查免鬆脫

The setting is the most vulnerable part of a diamond. Diamond is much harder than the metal setting. When the diamond is slightly loose within the prongs, after a while, there is a chance that it will damage the prongs and suddenly become loose and fall off. Therefore, one should regularly check that the prongs are tightly wrapped around the diamond. If it is loose, the diamond jewellery should be taken to a reputable jewellery shop for repair.

鑽飾最容易受損的地方是鑲嵌鑽石的座台，因為鑽石比金屬鑲台堅硬多倍，如鑽石稍有動，於鑲爪間轉動，有機會在一段時間後，割斷鑲爪，並突然掉落。所以，大家應不時檢查鑲座是否穩固，如發現有鬆動，可把鑽飾拿往具信譽的珠寶店修理。
