Aquamarine, as calm and soothing as the cloudless sky or the crystal clear waters of the sea, Aquamarine brings the same captivating sensation to those who bask in its beauty. The light blue stone shines brilliantly under the sun and complements both the eyes and skin of almost anyone. Azeera offers clarity and tranquility, bringing out the beauty of the aquamarine.
Aquamarine is rather strong in terms of mineral hardness – on the Mohs scale, it ranks between 7.5 and 8, just a bit more durable than an amethyst stone, yet not nearly as durable as a diamond. When protected and cared for properly, this gem can be one that lasts a lifetime.
There are a few elements that shouldn’t be exposed to this gem. Liquids include hot water, alcohol, toothpaste, detergent, hairspray, perfume, chlorine, hydrofluoric acid, enzyme cleaner and any type of ultrasonic cleaner, as these can drastically alter the stone by creating irreparable cracks and discoloration. Other forms of exposure to avoid are high heat, direct sunlight, steam, and sudden changes in temperature or temperature extremes.
Aquamarine jewelry may collect a good amount of oil and dirt from everyday use, so the most effective way to keep your stone’s shine, is to handle them as little as possible while completing routine tasks, like applying makeup, spraying hairspray or perfume, washing your face, etc. A good way to remember this is to think: “Last in, first out.”
Aside from a professional deep cleaning each year, you will also want to dedicate time to do routine cleaning at home. Use these seven easy-to-follow steps for regular cleaning every few weeks:
Although it’s safe to say that most gems are at most risk of damage while being worn, they are also at risk when stored improperly. A good rule of thumb for this particular stone is to wrap it with a soft, non-synthetic cloth, place it in a sturdy box or container, and keep it at room temperature. It may also be kept safe in a compartmentalized box of sorts, so as to not scratch or be scratched by other gems.
Should your stone need mending, be sure that a coat of borax or other similar heat-shielding substance is applied to the stone to avoid any damage while fusing or soldering. It is also recommended that highly expensive aquamarine be unset before applying any type of heat to it, but should be done by an experienced professional.
