Material: 925 Sterling Silver Stone Type: Malachite

To maintain the vibrant sky-blue hue of the Turquoise and the brilliant luster of the 925 Sterling Silver, please follow these essential care steps: Chemical Shield: Always apply perfumes, lotions, and hairsprays before putting on your jewelry. Turquoise is a porous stone that can absorb oils and chemicals, which may alter its natural color over time. Water Safety: Remove your piece before showering, swimming, or washing dishes. Prolonged exposure to moisture, chlorine, or salt water can accelerate the tarnishing of silver and damage the stone’s delicate structure. Gentle Cleaning: To restore the shine of the sterling silver, use a specialized silver polishing cloth. For the Turquoise itself, use only a soft, dry or very slightly damp cloth; never use ultrasonic cleaners, steam, or harsh jewelry dips. Safe Storage: Store your jewelry in a cool, dry place, ideally in an airtight pouch or an anti-tarnish bag to minimize oxidation. Keep it separate from other items to prevent the relatively soft Turquoise surface from being scratched by harder gemstones or metal links.
