Before getting into the tips to clean tanzanite bracelets, let us understand a little about this gemstone.

Physical Properties Of Tanzanite

The violet blue-colored gemstone was found in Tanzania, and since then, its discovery is not claimed anywhere else in the world. The hardness of tanzanite is 6 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale of hardness, which is very low when compared to other popular gemstones such as ruby sapphire and emerald. The reason is enough to understand that tanzanite jewelry requires special and gentle care. So here is the most awaited part of this write-up, how you can gently clean and care for your tanzanite jewelry.  

Cleaning Tips

Cleaning tips for tanzanite jewelry can be different for the jewels made from different metals because metals that contain a large proportion of copper can get darkened when they come in contact with water. On the other hand, white metals such as silver and platinum can be cleaned with lukewarm water and toothpaste or a gentle detergent. You should use a soft brush or a cloth while cleaning your bracelet. Never use rough scrubbers or metal brushes to clean your tanzanite bracelet.

Some jewelers claim to clean your tanzanite jewelry for just a few bucks. Although it is a good idea to get your jewelry cleaned and maintained by professionals, you should ensure that they will not clean your tanzanite jewelry using an ultrasonic or steam cleaning process. These methods tend to expose your jewelry to high-frequency vibrations and temperature, which are not good for delicate jewelry.

Caring Tips  

Some common caring tips can keep your tanzanite bracelets ever sparkling. Here is how you can take care of your tanzanite bracelet.

  • Keep your tanzanite bracelet in a soft and thick cloth pouch and apart from your other jewelry. Jewels that have diamonds or other commonly used gemstones are comparatively harder and they may scratch your tanzanite jewelry.
  • Put off your bracelet when working with detergents, soaps, or any other chemicals. 
  • Avoid exposing your tanzanite bracelet to oil and dirt.
  • Do not wear a watch or any other accessories in the same hand you are wearing your tanzanite bracelet. 

Final Words

Tanzanite is a delicate gemstone and expensive too. Investing your money in a tanzanite bracelet can be a good decision. So, if you have invested in a tanzanite bracelet instead of a loose gemstone and you love to wear it daily, these caring tips will certainly help you. What are your thoughts on this?
