A turquoise ring is beautiful to look at and own, yes, but it has to be taken good care of just like all other sorts of jewellery. The problem here lies in the fact that turquoise is an example of the more fragile of the valuable stones, and the fact that they dry out simple only helps make them more difficult to care for.

So without further ado, here are the basics in making your turquoise ring last a lifetime:

Be careful. This is the 1st rule in looking after all turquoise, as they are only a little harder than regular window glass. Avoid any forceful movement when wearing your ring, and make efforts to be particularly careful in all your hand gestures.

Wear it when you can. The moisture from your body allows turquoise to polish brightly, so don’t be afraid to wear it as much as you can.

Keep away from water. Even if turquoise requires a certain degree of moisture, dipping it in water exposes it to chemicals and other abrasive materials. Take your turquoise ring off before getting in the pool or bath, and it’ll last an entire life.

Don’t let it dry out. Excessive heat, cold and daylight damages turquoise, and it should be kept far away from these dangers as much as possible.

Wipe it with a clean fabric. This both cleans the turquoise ring and allows it to shine as well. Just make sure your fabric is nice and soft, or you may finish up scratching the skin of the ring.
