Think twice before putting stones in an ultrasonic cleaner. The diamonds and rubies and sapphires will be fine, but many other gems many not be, in particular, emerald beads, opal, peridot: when in doubt, do not.
4. Organic gems like pearls, coral and amber should only be cleaned with a damp cloth. Because of its organic nature, these gems are soft and porous.
