Alhambra stones/metals ranked: most-to-least delicate

[Bag@holic12]

Hey guys! Looking into purchasing an alhmabra bracelet but I've heard horror stories about the malachite and read that MOP can shrink over time from exposure to sweat. I try to keep my jewellery in near mint condition so would be interested to hear from you guys which stones (or the metal pieces) you think are the most delicate and the most hardiest

Thanks so much @waterlily112 for sharing this, it's exactly what I was looking for! Does anyone know if there are any specific risk factors with certain stones? Like sunlight, sweat, etc?
