How Do You Properly Care for Your Emerald Gemstone Jewelry

Emeralds are renowned for their captivating, vibrant green color. To preserve the beauty of your emerald gemstone jewelry, it's essential to follow some specific care guidelines. Emeralds are more delicate gemstones that require careful handling. Here are some tips for caring for your emeralds:

Gentle Cleaning

Emeralds should only be cleaned with a mild soap solution and lukewarm water. Avoid using ultrasonic cleaners or steam, as these methods can damage the stone. Gently clean the emerald with a soft cloth or brush to remove dirt.

Avoid Using Chemicals When Cleaning Gemstone Jewelry

Emeralds are sensitive to chemicals such as perfume, hairspray, and cleaning agents. These substances can damage the stone's surface. Remove your jewelry when working with cleaning products.

Protect your Gemstone Jewelry from Impact and Scratches

While emeralds are hard, their structure makes them prone to cracks and chipping. Avoid wearing your emerald jewelry during activities that might expose it to impact. Store your jewelry separately, preferably in a soft jewelry pouch (included with every RYIA order), to prevent scratches.

By following these care instructions, you can significantly extend the lifespan and shine of your precious RYIA Fine Jewelry. If you have questions about caring for your pieces or need service, we are always here to help.
