Rough shape stones retain their natural surface texture and irregular form. They skip the cutting and polishing stages that create smooth facets on conventional gems. This preserves original mineral characteristics like crystal terminations, natural fracture patterns, and surface inclusions.
Durability depends on the specific mineral. Harder stones like amethyst and citrine (Mohs 7) handle regular wear well. Softer stones may show wear over time and suit occasional use better. Sterling silver settings protect stone edges from direct impact.
Clean with mild soap, warm water, and a soft brush to remove debris from textured surfaces. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners, which can damage natural inclusions. Store pieces separately to prevent harder stones from scratching softer ones.
