The emerald gemstone itself is a relatively tough and durable gem, but due to the inclusions on its surface, fillers are often used to smooth the surface fracture and maximize its beauty. Unfortunately, these fillers are subject to deterioration when they are overly exposed to chemicals and light. Take this characteristic into account when you search for everyday-wear emerald jewelry at an online shop. Take caution and avoid wearing your emerald jewelry when cleaning or using any kind of chemicals. You can also visit a jewelry consultant to aid you in identifying ways to extend the lifespan of your birthstone jewelry.
The best way to clean emeralds is by using wax, oil, or resin. For daily cleaning, use a soft, lint-free cloth. Deep cleaning can be achieved using warm water and a mild detergent. Avoid using any abrasive and harsh chemicals and never scrub your jewelry; instead, gently rub off any dirt. You can use a toothpick or any soft brush to eliminate the dirt that may be lodged into the setting.

Emeralds are vulnerable to damage by contact with other stones. Therefore, it would be wise to store your birthstone jewelry separately from other jewelry. You can also wrap it in a soft cloth and store it in a safe place. Be sure to double-check that no additional small particles are found in the soft fabric as it will result in tiny scratches on the surface of your stone.
