Maintenance and Care
Impacts and Scratches:
Emeralds have natural internal inclusions, so a strong impact can cause cracks and damage their structure, resulting in irreparable damage to the gemstone. Scratches from hard and sharp objects can spoil the surface.
Extreme Heat and Excessive Sun Exposure:
Keep emeralds away from sources of extreme heat, as this can negatively affect their structure and appearance. Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can also affect their color and brilliance.
Chemicals, Perfumes, and Body Lotions:
Avoid spilling abrasive chemicals on the emerald, and it is also recommended not to wear it in a pool. Perfumes and body lotions should be applied before putting on the gemstone. All these factors can affect the color, brilliance, and integrity.
Cleaning and Preventive Maintenance:
Use a mild soap and a soft cloth to clean the emerald, gently rubbing to remove any visible dirt, and rinse with cold water. Every two years, it is recommended to visit an expert jeweler for a deep cleaning, and in some cases, depending on the treatment of the emerald, lubricate with cedarwood oil or palm oil.
