Amora gems are said to match and even exceed diamonds in brilliance, luster and fire. They also match white diamonds in clarity and color, reaching the Internally Flawless clarity grading and the D category in color grading. The Amora Gem is composed of half silicon and half carbon, and these gems grown in laboratories in extremely high temperatures. They are tough and durable, and they will last a long time especially if you take care of them diligently.

Cleaning and Protecting Your Amora Gem Jewelry

To make sure your gems last a long time without losing their brilliance, you should clean them regularly. To keep the gems shining you need to prevent any buildup caused by hard water, grease and other dirt that can accumulate on rings, necklaces and any jewelry that you wear often.
Ideally you should clean your gems weekly by soaking them in a mix of warm water and a little dish washing liquid. This will help to remove any grease or residue from body oils, skin lotions and creams. The Amora Gem is more resistant to grease from skin care products than diamonds are, but an overnight soak once a week will prevent buildup and keep your gems looking shinier and more brilliant over the years.
If you live in a hard water area, limescale will eventually start to build up on your gemstone jewelry whenever you wash your hands, take showers or wash dishes under tap water. To keep your gemstones free of hard water buildup, soak them occasionally in warm water into which a little vinegar has been added.
Ultrasonic jewelry cleaning equipment can be used to clean some gems, but it is best to use the warm water and dish washing liquid solution for weekly cleaning and only resort to ultrasonics occasionally. Weekly soaking will also prevent buildup of grease and dirt, and it is much easier to prevent dirt buildup than to get rid of long term layers of persistent limescale and grease.
Avoid strong chemicals, bleach and other harsh solutions when cleaning your gems. Bleach is an oxidizer, and it can damage gemstones and most types of jewelry. Avoid all kinds of chlorine cleaning products when cleaning your gemstones. It is even recommended that you remove all your rings and bracelets if you are about to clean your home with any harsh chemicals. The Amora Gem is a tough and durable stone, but it is best to take care of your gems carefully to make sure they last a long time and keep their fire and brilliance.
