Care & cleansing
Garnet is a fairly hard, durable stone (Mohs 6.5–7.5), so it can generally be worn daily and rinsed with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners, and prolonged sun exposure, which can dull the silver setting over time. To cleanse its energy, many people use smoke, sound, or a rest on a bed of stones rather than saltwater, which can pit the metal band.
