Care & Handling

Cleanse

Wipe with a soft dry cloth; avoid water and chemicals — turquoise is porous and can be damaged

Recharge

Place in gentle sunlight or moonlight; or hold in your hands and breathe your intention into it.

⚠ Safety

Porous and relatively soft (Mohs 5-6). Avoid water, perfumes, oils, and chemicals — they can alter its color. Many commercial turquoise pieces are stabilized or dyed. Store in soft cloth.
