Opals are unique gems, it is both beautiful and fragile.however, they are also delicate and require special care. Opals are porous and need to be stored and cleaned differently than other jewelry.
Being in the jewelry business, we know the proper way to do it, and it is very, very simple.
If you own a lot of opal jewelry, consider keeping them in small quantities, in separate containers, so they do not "jostle" against each other. Each one should be able to have its own space at the bottom of the jar without being stacked on top, or jammed against another opal.
Store opal jewelry in an environment with high humidity. opals have a high percentage of water in their make-up. If stored improperly, they will dry out, and their fiery colors will fade, leaving the stones dull. A good place to keep them is in the bathroom. Keep a small jewelry box or jar on the counter with your opal jewelry inside. This will give your opals a nice drink of humidity every time you take a shower or bath. to keep them lovely, indefinitely. When you wish to wear your opal jewelry, or have an individual opal made into a piece of jewelry, just remove them carefully from the container,
Wear your opal jewelry often. This is the best way to keep the opals humidified. The worst thing you can do is hide them away in a jewelry box or safe deposit box, never to be worn. The natural moisture emitted by our own bodies will keep your opals looking their best.
You can experience the same results, if you just follow our simple, easy steps, and remember - the beauty of opal come from good, old!
