Care:

Ethiopian opals are hydrophanes, meaning they easily absorb liquids and can lose their play of color and become white and pale. For this reason, please follow the recommendations below:

• Avoid wetting the stone unnecessarily. Although occasional contact with water does not usually damage it, it is advisable not to wear it when bathing, swimming, or practicing water sports.

• Do not expose it for prolonged periods to perfumes, body creams, chlorine, detergents, alcohol, acetone, or other chemical products, as they can affect the shine of the stone and the silver.

• Avoid sudden changes in temperature and excessive heat.

• Do not use ultrasonic cleaners or steam machines.

• Clean it only with a soft, dry cloth after use.

• Store the jewelry separately, preferably in a pouch or case, to avoid scratches from other pieces.

Silver cleaning:

To clean silver, you can use metal polishing paste, for example: white or black dialux, and a microfiber cloth. Rub until the silver color is restored.
