Avoid exposure to perfume, lotions, household chemicals and extreme heat (blow dryers etc.).

Opals, lapis, emeralds, pearls, and turquoise: Porous gemstones require gentle cleaning methods due to their delicate nature. Gently wipe them with a moist, soft cloth, then dry thoroughly. Avoid water or prolonged exposure to sunlight or extreme temperatures from blow dryers etc., as these can cause damage. Avoid using harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners, or steam cleaners, which can damage or discolor these stones.
