Tip: Thread your bracelets and necklaces through a straw to prevent tangling.<br \/>\nAbrasive sand, sunscreen, hot tub and pool chlorine are jewelry hazards. Sunscreens can coat and bleach gemstones and chlorine will damage karat gold, weakening settings. Before swimming, take off your rings- hands can become cold in water causing fingers to shrink and rings to fall off. Lotions and perfumes can also coat your stones and give them a cloudy appearance, dulling the natural beauty and fire of the stone. Try to remove all your jewelry before applying lotion.<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-316 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.houstonjewelry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/4P270-300x120.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"120\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.houstonjewelry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/4P270-300x120.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.houstonjewelry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/4P270.jpg 335w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>July Birth Stone: Ruby<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ruby has been the world\u2019s most valued colored gemstone for thousands of years.
