How to Care for Your Natural Stone Jewelry

Natural stones are beautiful but require a little extra care to keep them looking their best:

  • Avoid water: Remove your jewelry before swimming, showering, or washing hands.
  • Avoid chemicals: Keep away from perfume, hairspray, and cleaning products.
  • Store separately: Store each piece in a soft pouch or jewelry roll to prevent scratching.
  • Clean gently: Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wearing.
  • Avoid direct sunlight: Prolonged sun exposure can fade some natural stones.
