Gemstone Care Guide
Daily Care
Remove jewellery before swimming, exercising, or using chemicals. Apply perfume and lotions before wearing gems. Wipe pieces gently with a soft cloth after each use.
Cleaning
For most gems, warm soapy water and a soft brush is sufficient. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners for emeralds, opals, and pearls. Diamonds can handle more vigorous cleaning.
Storage
Store each piece separately in soft pouches or lined compartments. Diamonds can scratch other gems. Keep pearls away from dry environments.
