Care Instructions

Each piece is handcrafted using high-quality precious metals and natural crystals. Proper care will help preserve its beauty and ensure it lasts for many years.

 

Because our jewellery includes gemstones and minerals ranging across the Mohs hardness scale (1–10), care requirements may vary. Please follow the guidelines below.

Understanding Gemstone Hardness (Mohs Scale)

 

The Mohs scale measures a mineral’s resistance to scratching:

 

Soft Stones (1–4)

Examples: Opal, Pearl, Malachite, Turquoise

 

Scratch easily

 

Require gentle handling

 

Store separately

 

 

Medium Hardness Stones (5–7)

Examples: Lapis Lazuli, Moonstone, Quartz, Amethyst

 

Durable but still require care

 

Avoid hard impacts

 

 

Hard Stones (8–10)

Examples: Topaz, Sapphire, Ruby, Diamond

 

Very durable

 

Still can chip or crack if struck

 

 

 

Harder stones can scratch softer stones if stored together.
