  1. Amethyst Gemstone Care and Maintenance

  2. Cleaning: Clean your amethyst jewelry regularly to remove dirt, oils, and other residues. You can use a soft brush (such as a toothbrush) with warm, soapy water to gently scrub the stone. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Amethyst can be sensitive to chemicals found in household cleaners, perfumes, and hairsprays. Avoid exposing your amethyst jewelry to these substances, as they can cause damage or discoloration to the stone. Storage: Store your amethyst jewelry separately from other gemstones to prevent scratching. Ideally, wrap each piece in a soft cloth or store them in individual compartments of a jewelry box to prevent abrasion.

  3. Avoid Extreme Temperatures: Extreme heat or sudden temperature changes can cause thermal shock and damage to amethyst. Avoid exposing your amethyst jewelry to direct sunlight or extreme heat sources such as hot water. Refrain from Ultrasonic and Steam Cleaners: While these methods are commonly used for cleaning gemstones, they can be harmful to amethyst. The vibrations from ultrasonic cleaners and the heat from steam cleaners can cause fractures or discoloration in the stone. Regular Inspection: Periodically inspect your amethyst jewelry for any loose settings or damage. If you notice any issues, take your jewelry to a professional jeweler for repair. Recharge: Some people believe that amethyst has metaphysical properties and can absorb negative energy. To "recharge" your amethyst, you can place it in sunlight or moonlight for several hours. However, be cautious with this method as prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause fading in some varieties of amethyst.
