How to Care for Rudraksha and Gemstones: Storage, Cleaning and Handling
Physical care helps protect the material, capping and setting of an item. Keep care practical and separate from personal ritual: use the instructions supplied for the exact product, and ask before making an irreversible change.
Rudraksha care basics
Keep beads away from avoidable moisture, perfume, hair products, harsh cleaners and prolonged friction. Store a mala or bracelet where it will not be compressed, tangled or pulled. Inspect thread, elastic and fittings periodically. The capping guide explains why thread and metal construction need different handling.
Gemstone and jewellery care
Gemstones, settings and metals can respond differently to impact, heat, chemicals and cleaning methods. Avoid household cleaners unless the exact stone and setting are known to be suitable. A soft, dry cloth and secure storage are sensible first steps. For mounted items, read the gemstone setting guide and use a qualified jeweller for repairs or resizing.
Photographs, reports and product records
Keep the invoice, product listing and any certificate or report together with the item. This is helpful if you need to compare an item before care or repair. The certificate verification guide and photography and colour guide explain how to record the item accurately.
When to seek help
Stop using an item if a fitting is loose, a thread has frayed or a stone has become unstable in its setting. Contact the store with the order number before modifying the product. Delivery and eligibility questions are governed by shipping information and the return policy.
