It's important that you have your engagement ring periodically checked by your jeweller. The recommended timeframe is about every six months. Remember, your engagement ring is the one piece of jewellery that you wear every day for the rest of your life, and you should wear it confidently. Simply have it checked every six months to make sure that the diamond is secure and that the prongs, or the rest of the ring, don't need any repair.
