What is the best oil for ivory maintenance?

White tea oil is the best way to maintain ivory.

White tea oil is one of the best maintenance oils in Wan Wen, which can brighten the surface luster and promote the formation of patina on the surface of ivory to some extent, thus improving the quality of ivory. Nowadays, white tea oil is mostly used for carving Shoushan stone ornaments and Zhong Shiyin. Large ornaments are suitable for indoor display. If the stone surface is dry, Bo Tu vegetable oil can make it moist and bright.

White tea oil is a kind of natural tea oil. After long-term storage in a specific environment, it changes from golden yellow to light yellow until it is colorless and tasteless. The whiteness of white tea oil is transparent and pure, which is the result of the accumulation of years and the gradual natural transformation of color, rather than the result of manual refining and rapid purification, so it is also called aged white tea oil.

Matters needing attention in ivory maintenance

If you have personal ornaments of ivory, you must take them off when you take a bath, because ivory will crack and change color once it is put in hot water for too long. And it's best not to drop it, because it's easy to be damaged, so play more when you have time. Don't let ivory stick to irritating liquids such as detergents, because the surface gloss will darken and the color will turn black. It is normal to play for a long time.

It is not recommended to maintain ivory with oil. If it is dirty, you can use a toothbrush dipped in toothpaste to clean it, but the time should not be too long, otherwise it will crack easily. Ivory products are sensitive to temperature and humidity, please pay attention to moisturizing. More than 50% humidity is enough. If bracelets are often used, it doesn't matter if ivory is a little delicate. If you need lubrication when wearing it, please don't use soap or hand sanitizer, just put a thin plastic bag on your hand.
