Troubleshooting
The ring appears dull or has lost its shine.
Gently clean the ring with a soft, lint-free cloth. For more persistent dullness, use a mild soap and water solution, rinse thoroughly, and dry immediately. Ensure no chemical residues are left.
The cubic zirconia crystal seems less sparkly.
Oils and dirt can accumulate on the stone. Clean the crystal carefully with a soft brush (like a soft toothbrush) and mild soapy water, then rinse and dry completely to restore its brilliance.
The platinum-tone plating appears to be wearing off.
Plating can naturally wear over time, especially with frequent use. To prolong its life, minimize exposure to harsh chemicals, sweat, and friction. For significant wear, professional re-plating may be an option (info needed on Vivienne Westwood's service or recommendations).
The ring has minor scratches.
Minor scratches are common with wear. Store the ring separately to prevent further scratches. Avoid abrasive materials when cleaning. For deeper scratches, consult a professional jeweler (info needed on repair options).
