Pearl Care
The Best Way to Care For
Your Cultured Pearls
Treat them with care
They should be the Last Thing you put on and the first you take off
Never store pearls with metal jewelry
Store pearls separately (They can be scratched)
Keep them in a chamois bag
Store in a fabric-lined jewelry box
Don'ts:
Don't Expose Pearls to:
hair sprays
cosmetics
perfumes
chemical cleaners (ammonia & bleach)
ultrasonic cleaning machines
Don't
Dip your pearls in water or wear them while bathing, as water can weaken the string.
Pearls should not be placed in an air tight container. They need to breathe or they will lose their natural moisture and crack.
Should any of these contaminants come in contact with your pearls they can eat away at the culture of the pearl:
Have them professionally cleaned
Maintenance:
Bring your pearls for inspection and restringing once a year
Have your pearls strung with a knot between each pearl.
If they are stored in a safe, place a container of water in the safe to keep the compartment humid
