Care & Cleaning
Turquoise is the stone of communication, protection, and happiness. For thousands of years, it has been worn by shamans and kings as a powerful talisman. Because Turquoise is a relatively soft (hardness 5-6) and very porous stone, it requires extremely careful handling.
- Cleaning: ⚠️ Avoid water and soap. Turquoise absorbs liquids like a sponge, which can damage the stone from the inside or change its color. The safest way to clean Turquoise is by means of smoke (Palo Santo or white sage). You can also very briefly wipe the stone with a slightly damp, soft cloth and immediately dry it.
- Charging: This stone is deeply connected to the air and the earth. It prefers to charge in the soft light of the full moon or the early morning sun. A Selenite charging plate is also an excellent, dry method to fully restore the energy of Turquoise without affecting its structure.
- ⚠️ Note: Never place Turquoise in the hot midday sun, as it can dry out and crack. Avoid all contact with perfume, makeup, sunscreen, and cleaning products. Always put on your Turquoise jewelry last and take it off first.
