Black Onyx parameters. Analyzing the deep contrast and physical durability of our primary anchoring stone.
Maintenance Protocol
| Material | Required Maintenance | Lifespan Optimization |
|---|---|---|
| 14k Solid Gold | Warm water, mild soap, soft brush. | Rinse after exposure to heavy chlorine or salt water to prevent surface buildup. |
| Diamonds | Routine cleaning to remove body oils. | Oils block light return. Brush weekly behind the setting to maintain maximum optical fire. |
| Solid Silver | Wear daily to delay natural oxidation. | Store in an airtight environment when not worn. Use a dedicated polishing cloth to restore high-contrast shine. |
| Onyx & Gems | Wipe with a damp, non-abrasive cloth. | Never use chemical dips or ultrasonic cleaners. Isolate from harder materials to avoid surface friction. |
