Alexandrite is a durable gemstone, but proper care is still essential to maintaining its brilliance and showcasing its beautiful color change.

- Clean gently: Use warm, soapy water and a soft brush, focusing behind the jewelry setting where oils and debris can build up and dull luster.
- Use caution with machines: Ultrasonic and steam cleaning are generally safe for alexandrites, but if the stone is heavily included or fracture-filled, stick to manual cleaning.
- Avoid harsh chemicals: While alexandrite is relatively stable, it’s still best to remove jewelry before using strong cleaners or swimming in chlorinated water, as harsh chemicals can damage metal settings.
- Store separately: Alexandrite can scratch softer gems like pearls, opals and emeralds—and be scratched by harder stones like sapphires, rubies and diamonds. Keep it in its own pouch or compartment.

Because cultured pearls are organic and relatively soft, they require special care to last for generations. Keep your pearls glowing with these essential tips:

- The "Last On, First Off" Rule: Apply perfume, hairspray and cosmetics *before* putting on your pearls. These substances can eat away at the nacre and dull the luster.
- Wipe After Wearing: Perspiration and body oils can slowly damage pearls. Wipe them with a soft, clean cloth after each use to maintain their glow.
- Store Flat and Separate: Never store pearls in a tangle with diamonds or gold, which can easily scratch their surface. Store pearl strands flat; hanging them for long periods can stretch the silk.
- Restring strands: For frequently worn necklaces, have them restrung annually by a professional to ensure the silk cord remains strong and secure.
- Avoid Dry Areas & Heat: Never store pearls in an airtight safe or near a hot light source. Lack of moisture and exposure to heat can dehydrate the gems, causing them to appear dull and "chalky.”
