Q: What is a gemstone?
A: A gemstone is a piece of mineral crystal that is cut and polished to be used to make jewelry or other adornments. It can be precious or semi-precious, depending on its cut, hardness, and rarity. To learn more about each individual gemstone, visit our Gemstone Index.
Q: What is the difference between a precious and a semi-precious gemstone?
A: Diamonds, emerald, sapphire, & ruby are considered to be precious stones. All other gemstones are considered to be semi-precious. This distinction is based on rarity, color, translucency, and hardness. The distinction has nothing to do with value, as there is no universally accepted grading system for gemstones.
Q: How do I properly care for my jewelry?
A: If maintained properly, leather jewelry can last a long time. It is better to avoid wearing your leather jewelry in the shower or during poor weather conditions. A leather protector spray can go a long way, ensuring the maintenance of your jewelry. Try to avoid wearing your jewelry when working with harsh chemicals such as bleach or other household cleaners, as they can discolor and erode the leather.
It is easier on the wear and tear of the magnetic clasps if you slide them apart, versus pulling.
Q: What are crystal meanings & properties of gemstones?
A: There are unique meanings & healing properties that are associated with each gemstone. For thousands of years, ancient civilizations have utilized the power of crystals to release spiritual, mental, & physical blockages within the body. When crystals are placed on or near the body, there is a vibratory effect that is transferred, being as both quartz crystal and the human body contain mineral silicon-dioxide. The specific energies of each crystal can be used as a tool to help our thoughts connect to our body.
