Generally while buying gemstone jewelry people are doubtful as with the quality, as there are a number of people who sell fake gemstones. In certain cases where the gemstones are extremely rare to find as in the case of pearls cultured pearls are being accepted worldwide as finding the natural variety can be difficult and monetarily out of reach for most people.
All you need to know to make that gem jewelry shine like new again.
Cleaning gemstones is somewhat like cleaning gold vermeil: you want to do the bare minimum to get the job done. Cleaning is a part of care, and if you go overboard with chemicals, scrubbing, or ultrasonic cleaners, you run the risk of damaging the very thing you’re trying to protect!
At first, simply take a soft dry cloth and remove any surface dirt or grime. A healthy and vigorous dry polish can go a long way in removing nasty unwanted particles and smudges, and offers little threat to the integrity of your fashion jewelry.
In the event that the dry rub isn’t enough, a mild soapy solution should be your next resort. Mix some lukewarm (never hot) water with a little bit of gentle, non anti-bacterial dish soap, and soak your accessory in the solution for a few minutes.
Treatments used for gemstone jewelry
• Irradiation – this treatment is commonly used to treat gemstones like emeralds, diamonds, aquamarine and blue topaz to remove imperfections and improve the color of the stone.
• Heat Treatment – ruby, topaz, amethyst necklace and aquamarine are some of the gemstones given this treatment to improve their color.
• Dye – this is a common method of treating many gemstones like rose quartz, lapis, amethyst, citrine and black onyx which is permanently dyed in the normal processing of the stone. You need to look out for cracks and incisions which can spoil the appearance of the jewelry set once created.
• Coatings – Turquoise jewelry is waxed, emerald is oiled and jasper dipped in petroleum products to enhance their color and protect them from damage.
