It can have eyes, or both eyes and veins... endlessly varied, a marvel of creation! **> Care Instructions** 1. Collision with hard objects or dropping Like all other jades and agates, agate is brittle. Avoid contact with hard objects to prevent scratches or even fractures. When not wearing, store it in a jewelry box lined with soft cloth or padding to prevent friction or impact damage. 2. Avoid corrosive substances Minimize contact with perfumes, chemical liquids, soaps, etc., to prevent erosion that could affect the agate's vibrancy and luster. 3. Avoid high temperatures Agate expands when heated, increasing the molecular volume and affecting its internal structure. Prolonged exposure to high temperatures can cause Gobi agate to crack or even break. Minor exposure may result in cracks, while severe exposure can lead to direct breakage. 4. Cleaning If cleaning is necessary, gently wipe with a small soft brush or soft cloth. If stains persist, rinse with clean water. Avoid using detergents, as they are chemicals with corrosive properties. 5. Frequent handling Regularly handling the agate jewelry while wearing it allows a thin layer of natural oils from your skin to form on the surface, enhancing its warmth and beauty over time.
