A strong gemstone, Tourmaline can be worn frequently without a lot of special care. Those seeking out a vibrant stone will see ours, at Azeera, are bright while often being iconic rose pink with a touch of purple – The Ideal Pink Tourmaline, can be cut into a diverse range of settings.
Pink tourmaline ranks at a 7 – 7.5 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, and has a rating of good in terms of toughness. Because it is not as durable as diamond and more durable than other stones like talc and gypsum, proper maintenance is necessary to make sure this gemstone does not damage nor become damaged while wearing.
No matter what type of gemstone you might have, it is always recommended that your jewelry be handled by its band or chain, not by the actual stone itself. This will prevent the gem from accumulating buildup of natural oils and other residue that are often transferred from the hands to the gem.
Similar to other gemstones, pink tourmaline can accrue day-to-day residue, including oil, dirt, makeup and other deposits. Keep your stone in pristine condition by handling it as little as possible while completing daily tasks, including scrubbing dishes, applying any makeup with your fingers, spraying hairspray or perfume, cleaning the house, etc. A good thing to remember is: “Last in, first out.” You’ll also want to do some routine cleaning on this stone at home so you won’t have to have more intensive cleanings later on, which can take away many of the essential oils that give the stone its shine. Use these easy-to-follow cleaning steps for the best results:
Be careful not to use ultrasonic or steam cleaners on this gemstone, as it could damage it severely.
You may also want to visit a certified jeweler annually to have your gem thoroughly inspected and professionally polished. In doing so, you will ensure an even more intense brilliance in your pink tourmaline. If you can, be sure to have the jeweler examine the stone’s mounting and setting, too, to see if the stone needs resetting.
Pink tourmaline is a moderately hard gemstone, though may still be damaged and cause damage to other materials if not stored appropriately. If the stone is loosely stored with other less-durable gemstones, it will probably damage them. Similarly, if it is stored with a diamond or other very hard stone, it can become scratched or chipped. The best way to avoid this is to store each of your gemstones separately in compartmentalized boxes at room temperature.
If your pink tourmaline should become fractured or damaged, it is best advised that you take your gem to a professional for mending. This individual will have the proper knowledge of how to best repair your stone and not cause any further damage to its color or shape.
