*Details of the Treatment*
Gemstones are often exposed to higher temperatures to permanently improve their color and clarity. Without heat treatment, fine quality gemstones would be inaccessibly priced. Colored gemstones have undergone treatment for thousands of years. As long as the treatment is permanent, it is widely accepted that enhancements are important for maintaining the availability of genuine gemstones.
*Care Instructions*
You can clean it with warm soapy water (dish soap like Dawn is perfect) and a soft bristle toothbrush! Most gems should be cleaned this way because ultrasonic cleaners can damage them.
