Caring for Your Gemstones and Fine Jewelry |
||||
| Caring for your gemstones and gemstone jewelry is often quite a simple task. Taking a little time to treat your gemstones stones properly can lead to years of satisfaction and sparkle. | ||||
|
Maintain their beauty by cleaning your gems. |
||||
| Gems, particularly those in rings, will collect dust behind the gem. Clean your gemstones with water, a soft toothbrush, and gentle dish soap. | ||||
|
Avoid wearing gems during strenuous exercise. |
|
|||
| A well-placed blow can damage the beauty of stone, so it is safest to store them while engaging in any activity where they might be subjected to high impact or grinding, like sports and gardening. | ||||
|
Do not handle jewelry by the stone. |
||||
| You don’t want to loosen a stone from the mounting and take a chance of eventually losing it if the stone falls out. Store jewelry with gemstones separate from each other. Some gems are harder than others, and a harder stone will scratch a softer stone. | ||||
