Gemstone Guide & Care
Maintaining Brilliance
Gemstone jewelry worn daily can appear to lose its sparkle if not cleaned regularly. Here are important care tips.
General Gemstone Care
- Clean regularly with warm soapy water and a soft cloth.
- Avoid ultrasonic cleaners for softer stones (emeralds, opals, pearls).
- Remove jewelry during physical activities and household chores.
- Store pieces separately in soft pouches to prevent scratching.
- Avoid harsh chemicals, chlorine, and extreme temperatures.
