Moissanite

When it comes to moissanite, there are certain mistakes that can be easily avoided to ensure the longevity and beauty of this stunning gemstone. We have compiled a list of common errors that you should steer clear of when it comes to moissanite.

1. Exposing Moissanite to Harsh Chemicals

One of the biggest mistakes you can make with moissanite is exposing it to harsh chemicals. Chemicals such as chlorine, bleach, and other cleaning agents can damage the surface of the stone and affect its brilliance. It is important to remove your moissanite jewellery such as wedding rings, engagement rings or bracelets before using any cleaning products or swimming in pools with chlorine.

2. Not Cleaning Moissanite Regularly

While moissanite is known for its durability and resistance to scratches, it is still important to clean it regularly to maintain its sparkle. Dirt, oils, and lotions can build up on the surface of the stone, dulling its shine over time. To clean your moissanite, simply soak it in warm, soapy water and gently scrub with a soft brush.

3. Storing Moissanite Improperly

Improper storage of moissanite can lead to scratches and damage. Avoid storing your moissanite jewellery such as moissanite rings, necklaces or earrings with other pieces that can scratch the surface of the stone. It is best to store your moissanite in a soft pouch or a separate compartment in your jewellery box to prevent any damage.

4. Using Abrasive Materials to Clean Moissanite

When cleaning your moissanite jewellery, avoid using abrasive materials such as rough cloths or brushes. These materials can scratch the surface of the stone, diminishing its brilliance. Stick to soft, non-abrasive cleaning tools to keep your moissanite looking its best.

5. Not Checking for Loose Stones

Regularly inspect your moissanite jewellery for any loose stones. If you notice any stones that are not securely set, take your jewellery to a professional jeweller for repair. Ignoring loose stones can result in loss of the stone and potential damage to the setting.

By avoiding these common mistakes, you can ensure that your moissanite jewellery remains beautiful and brilliant for years to come. Remember to treat your moissanite with care and it will continue to sparkle just like the day you first laid eyes on it.
