Safety note
This is a general guide for everyday care. Some items sold as a stone can be composites, dyed, coated, stabilised, or treated. If treatment is not confirmed, it is not stated.
If you are unsure, avoid soaking. Prefer a brief rinse only for water safe stones, then pat dry.

Frequently asked questions
Are all quartz crystals water safe
Many quartz varieties are generally considered water safe, but treatment and condition matter. If a piece is coated, dyed, heavily fractured, or very porous, avoid soaking and use a dry method.
Can I put crystals in salt water
Salt water is more aggressive than fresh water. It can damage softer minerals, metals in jewellery, and some polished finishes. Use a dry method if unsure.
Can crystals go in water overnight
Overnight soaking increases risk. Even water safe minerals can be affected by fractures, inclusions, or treatments. Short rinses are safer than soaking.
What is the safest way to cleanse if water is not recommended
Use a dry approach such as a selenite surface or other non water routines described in your cleansing guide.
Do treatments change water safety
Yes. Coatings, dyes, stabilisation, bonding, and plating can change how a piece behaves in water. If treatment is not confirmed, it is not stated.
