Care
- Unakite can be easily cleaned with warm soapy water and a soft cloth or brush. Be sure to rinse it well to remove any soapy residue. Avoid prolonged exposure to heat, as heating can permanently change the colour of your stones. When storing stone jewellery or the stones themselves, it is best to place them in a cloth-covered box or wrap them in a cloth separately from other stones to prevent damage and scratches. It is advisable to remove the jewellery during major physical activities such as gymnastics or sports. Avoid spraying perfume and hairspray directly on your jewellery and stones.
