Frequently asked questions
Can amazonite get wet?
Brief contact is fine. With a hardness of around 6, long soaking or contact with cleaning products can dull its lustre over time, so it is best taken off before washing your hands or showering.
Is a bluer amazonite always better?
A saturated, evenly blue-green colour with natural white veining is generally considered good quality. A colour that looks flat and too uniform may point to treatment or enhancement.
