Gemstone Care

  • Opal (Hydrophane Opal)

     

    ❌ Avoid humidity and water

    ❌ Avoid contact with any chemicals, chlorine, and lotions

    ✅ Wipe gently with a soft microfiber cloth.

    ✅ Store in a dry, airtight container away from other jewelry

     

    Natural Opal, or Hydrophane Opal, is naturally porous and absorbs water as well as other liquids. Liquid, along with humidity and sudden changes in temperature can permanently crack and damage your Opal as well as alter its color permanently. When exposed to humidity or submerged in water, gently wipe your Opal off with a soft microfiber cloth and store for at least 24 hours in a small cup of rice. This will help absorb the water and return your Opal back to its original color - however this can still alter your Opal's play of color and cause cracks over time.

    ✅ Store in a dry jewelry box away from other jewerly

     

    To avoid cracking or damaging your gems, make sure to avoid submerging in water, contact with any lotions or chemicals (especially chlorine), and sudden temperature changes. Lovingly care for your gems and wear them mindfully to avoid breakage.
