Just Like a Sapphire, Never Dull Your Sparkle

Australian sapphires are renowned for their brilliance and clarity: if you invest in a gemstone like a sapphire, you’ll be rewarded with their gorgeous, light-catching sparkle. 
Of course, maintaining a sapphire’s sparkle is important, but you can do this by taking care of your jewellery piece. As with any gemstone, sapphire pieces can have a build-up of grime and dirt around the main stones depending on their environmental exposure and daily activities. 
If you experience this, the best thing to do is to soak your sapphire jewellery piece in a dish of warm soapy water and clean it using a soft toothbrush: this will remove any built-up residue. Simply then dry it using soft cotton or jewellery cloth.
An alternative method of cleaning is to have it done professionally. This will ensure that the stone is cleaned properly and safely. At Jason Ree, we offer Complementary lifetime cleaning and stone security inspection to ensure your sapphire remains safe and sparkling forever.
