  The halo setting is designed with a center gemstone surrounded by a pave or micro-pave setting of smaller accent stones, sometimes diamonds, but it can be other precious or semi-precious stones. This colored stone jewelry is popular for its halo of smaller stones that reflect brilliance back on the center gem, creating an illusion that it is larger than its actual size.

General Cleaning Guidelines for jewelry with gemstones

• Use a mild soap solution (warm water mixed with gentle dish soap) and use a soft brush to clean your semi-precious stone jewelry. Rinse thoroughly and dry using a soft cloth.

• Have your precious stone jewelry professionally cleaned annually and check for setting issues.

• Although generally safe for other stones, refrain from using ultrasonic cleaners on pearls, emeralds, opals, and other delicate gems.

• Emeralds

  Never use harsh cleaning solutions and heat that can affect their clarity

• Opals

  Store in slightly humid areas after cleaning to avoid cracks and drying out

• Pearls

  Avoid using ammonia-based cleaners as they can damage their natural luster

• Turquoise

  Gently clean using warm soapy water and dry thoroughly before storing

• Swimming

  Saltwater and chlorine from swimming pools cause deterioration to both stone and precious metal settings

• Exercising

  Sweat and accidental impact can cause damage and scratches to your colored stone jewelry

• Beauty routines

  Lotions, perfumes, make-up, etc., have chemicals that can cause discolorations to the stone and metal.

• Storing each piece in individual compartments to prevent scratching

• Keep precious stone jewelry inside a soft, felt-lined box

• Refrain from putting these boxes in areas of your house with extreme humidity and temperature

• Regularly inspect your jewelry for loose stones, settings, and wear
