Keep your stone’s colors bright and its surface beautiful with these tips: Clean only when necessary, gently with lukewarm water and mild soap. Dry with a soft cloth. Do not soak the stone or expose it to hot water or chemicals. Avoid direct sunlight and heat, as the colors may fade over time. Rhodochrosite is a relatively soft stone (Mohs ~3.5–4), so it scratches easily and can crack if dropped.
