Cleaning and Care of Real Cat’s Eye Bracelet
You need to clean and care for a natural cats eye bracelet properly. That’s the way to maintain its beauty, longevity, and metaphysical integrity. Unlike synthetic or treated stones, natural cat’s eye gemstones need gentle handling.
1. Clean with Mild Soap and Lukewarm Water
To clean your cat’s eye bracelet, prepare a bowl of lukewarm water mixed with a few drops of mild, non-chemical soap. You must then gently scrub the bracelet using a soft-bristled toothbrush. Alternatively, a microfiber cloth also works to remove accumulated dust or oils. Avoid hot water or harsh detergents. They can dull the stone’s finish.
2. Avoid Ultrasonic Cleaners and Steam
Cat’s eye stones have natural inclusions and fibre-like structures that may weaken with excessive heat or vibration. Hence, ultrasonic cleaners and steam-based cleaning methods are not recommended. Stick to manual cleaning to prevent structural damage.
3. Store Separately
Store the bracelet in a soft pouch or a lined jewellery box to avoid scratches from harder gemstones like diamonds or sapphires. GemPundit provides a protective storage pouch with each bracelet to help customers care for their gemstone properly.
4. Limit Exposure to Chemicals
Remove your cat’s eye bracelet before applying perfumes, lotions, or engaging in household cleaning. When you expose the gemstones to chemicals for a long time, there is a risk of adversely affecting the surface polish.
Recharge and Energise Periodically
For those wearing it for astrological purposes, it’s advised to cleanse and recharge the stone occasionally. You may place it under moonlight or briefly immerse it in clean, unfiltered water after consulting a gemstone expert.
With a little care and attention, your cat’s eye bracelet from GemPundit will remain not only visually stunning but also energetically vibrant for years to come. In addition to bracelets, GemPundit also offers cats eye rings and other personalised gemstone solutions tailored to your astrological profile.
