How to take care of Organic Gemstones Jewelry?
Formed by biological processes, organic gemstones are the most intimate and cherished accessories of every woman. Strong enough to be set in jewelry, they are definitely worth the special care and cleaning.
How to Clean:
Never soak pearls, coral, turquoise, howlite, or amber jewelry in water. Improper cleaning can easily damage these porous gemstones. Avoid harsh soap or chemical jewelry cleaner. Don't use an ultrasonic cleaner or steam cleaner. It can lessen the lustrous look of organic gems.
Just use a small make-up brush dipped in shampoo and water to clean. Or else, you can wipe the jewels with a clean and moist cloth.
How to Store:
Organic gems are worth the extra care. While storing, it is best to keep organic gems in a protected soft pouch. You can also wrap them in tissue paper to protect from being scratched. However, do not store them in a plastic bag. The plastic can react chemically, causing the surface to deteriorate. Storing jewelry in a safety deposit box or safe can dry out organic gemstones. Place a small container of water in the box and open it regularly for the circulation of air.
Special care: If your gems are very dried out, wrap them in a dampened cloth with mineral oil, and let it stay overnight. Wipe off any extra oil in the morning. Never soak it.
It is suggested not to wear organic gems jewelry if it is hot. Sweat has a chemical component that can stain some organic gems. Take your jewelry off; if you are cooking, cleaning, or doing any activity that involves vinegar, bleach, or detergents.

Though peridot was often referred to as chrysolite in the past, peridot has grown in popularity among experts in the gem trade. Primarily, this is due to the number of gems that already make use of the “chryso” prefix, such as chrysoberyl or chrysoprase. In antiquated references, peridot may still occasionally be referred to as chrysolite. In mineralogy, olivine is the preferred name for the gem. Know more about Peridot by visiting ShopLC.

How is Shungite Mined?
A combination of intricate machinery and specialized techniques are required for extracting shungite gemstones from the earth. Since the source exists in Northern Russia, the harsh temperature and climate limit digging to the spring and summer. Rough shungite quickly whittles down as expert gem cutters shape stones. Only around 4-percent of rough ever becomes polished gemstones! Unfortunately, the original shungite mines have since closed, and the status of future production is unknown. Shop LC works very closely with our mining partner to ensure a regular supply for as long as this stone will last! Know more about shungite by visiting ShopLC.

Truly breathtaking insight, the most desirable emerald colors range from bluish-green to vivid dark green. What differentiates them are the different shades of green and how clearer the gem is?
