Like diamonds, topaz have perfect cleavage – meaning that a sharp blow from the right direction will cause the stone to split perfectly along the cleavage line. For this reason, it’s important to protect blue topaz from situations where it may receive a sharp blow.

Everyday cautions

Remove blue topaz jewelry when doing house or yard work, and before applying makeup and hair spray.

Cleaning blue topaz

Clean blue topaz jewelry with a soft cloth or brush and a solution of mild dishwashing liquid and water. Soak the piece of jewelry in the solution for ten to twenty minutes, then carefully scrub with a soft toothbrush. Do not use ultrasonic or mechanical cleaners and avoid harsh chemical cleaning solutions.
