Buyer intelligence
Color is the dominant factor: vivid bluish green to green with good transparency is preferred. Enhancement level can materially affect market value and should be disclosed.
Care
Avoid steam and ultrasonic cleaning when clarity-enhanced. Gentle warm soapy water is the safest default.
