Ethiopian Opal care

(1). Keep Your Ethiopian Opal Ring Dry (Key: away from water and liquids):
This is the most important thing to keep in mind when taking care of your Ethiopian opal jewelry (especially opal rings). Remove your opal ring when washing your hands, cleaning dishes, taking a shower, relaxing in hot tubs or Jacuzzis or going swimming.

Any activity or setting that involves water or liquid, please keep away from your opal ring!

If your opal ring gets wet from water and the fire and color of the opal are gone, don't panic.

Immediately use a soft microfiber cloth to dry the surface of the opal and simply let your opal ring dry naturally for about shops 24 hours. The drying process may take a few minutes to weeks, depending on how much water the opal has absorbed. In our demonstration, the opals were soaked in water for 8 hours and it took more than 24 hours to restore the play-of-color. Please avoid using a hair dryer to speed up the drying process.
Also never clean your opal jewelry by soaking it in a bowl of water with soap or house cleaners or by placing them in an ultrasonic cleaner or steamer! Remember, Ethiopian opals do not like water! Instead, clean your opal jewelry with a dry and clean soft cloth to gently remove dirt and buildup.
(2). Avoid Liquid Chemicals on Your Ethiopian Opal Ring
liquids or oils like soap, shampoo, body oils, hand sanitizer, perfumes, hairspray, house cleaners, or any chemical liquids can stain the opal permanently! Please remove your opal jewelry before doing any activity involving these chemical liquids or oils.
(3). Avoid Heavy Physical Activities When Wearing Your Opal Ring
On the Moh's Scale of Hardness which rates gemstones' ability to resist scratching from 1-10, opals rate 5.5 to 6.5, putting them below Amethyst ranked at 7 but above pearls ranked at 3.5. Therefore, please remove your opal ring when doing any heavy physical activities such as weightlifting, exercise, housekeeping, or gardening. When you are not wearing your opal jewelry, it is recommend storing it individually in soft cloth jewelry pouches or sealed plastic bags to prevent tarnishing and scratches.
