How to care for Pearls

Pearls are a soft gemstone with low resistence to heat and chemicals. Clean them with a soft cloth or chamois which can be dry or damp.

• Never use detergents, bleaches, or chemical cleaners. Don't use toothbrushes, scouring pads or abrasive materials to remove dirt as these can scratch the surface.
  
  
• Put on your pearls AFTER applying make-up, hairspray or perfume.
  
  
• Take off pearls before showering, bathing or swimming so you don't get the silk string wet.
  
  
• Keep pearls in a soft pouch or bag and separate from other jewelry which can scratch them.
  
  
• If you wear your pearls a lot they will need restringing periodically.
