Diamond Selection

Kendra Scott Engagement Rings offer an assortment of custom lab-created diamonds. The difference between lab-created diamonds versus mined diamonds is that the first is from a laboratory and possesses essentially the same chemical, physical and optical properties as its natural counterpart, while a mined diamond is a natural diamond created by forces deep within the young Earth. (Source: GIA)

Cleaning and Care Instructions

Visit any of the participating Kendra Scott stores for a complimentary cleaning for the lifetime of any piece from our engagement assortment. Cleaning is exclusive to the engagement assortment. You can check which stores offer complimentary engagement ring cleaning here.


Kendra Scott’s engagement ring assortment use the finest materials and craftsmanship so they may be worn every day. To ensure your ring lasts a lifetime, regular cleaning and care is recommended to maintain your jewelry’s shine. 


To clean our collection of engagement rings, we recommend using our Sparkle + Shine Cleaning Duo or a fully dissolved mixture of 1 teaspoon of mild dishwashing soap and 1 cup of warm water. Gently wipe your ring clean with a professional polishing cloth or soft bristle toothbrush. Rinse with clean water and dry on a clean, soft cloth. Using jewelry dips or polishes is not recommended as they may contain harsh abrasives that can damage the color or finish of the jewelry. Maintain your jewelry’s color and shine by avoiding contact with agents such as perfumes, hand sanitizers, lotions, soaps with added moisturizers or exfoliants, makeup, and hair & cleaning products such as bleach, chlorine, alcohol, and acetone.  


If your ring needs a deeper cleaning, a professional ultrasonic cleaning should be performed to remove dirt and build up. We do not recommend using an at-home ultrasonic cleaner as the vibrations could dislodge a loose diamond from its setting. Please contact one of our participating Kendra Scott stores here for assistance with professional cleaning so we can ensure the prongs are tight and center stone is secure.


14k White Gold is plated with Rhodium for a brilliant white finish. Over time, with daily wear, the Rhodium may gradually wear off exposing the natural yellow-white tone of the 14k White Gold underneath. You can restore the finish by having it professionally replated. Please contact one of our participating Kendra Scott stores or Customer Care for assistance with replating repair.  


Examine your ring regularly to ensure your settings are secure. Worn prongs are vulnerable to become loose when hit against a surface or snagged on material which could result in the loss of a diamond. Pavé settings are very delicate, and we suggest you avoid wearing your ring if you will encounter conditions where abrasion, extreme impacts, or force is used to avoid losing a diamond or scratching the setting.   


Kendra Scott recommends always removing your jewelry before showering, swimming, and exercising; as well as storing your jewelry in a pouch or lined box for safe keeping.
