Pearl Care Frequently Asked Questions
How do I take care of pearls?
As organic gems, pearls are vulnerable to chemicals found in cosmetics, hair spray, and perfume. To preserve the luster of your pearls, always put on your jewelry after applying makeup and styling products. Pearls can also be harmed by perspiration. Before placing your pearls back into the jewelry box, wipe them gently with a soft cotton or bamboo cloth.
How do I clean pearls?
Never use an ultrasonic cleaner on your pearls. It can damage their nacre. Occasionally wipe your pearls gently with a cloth dipped in mild, soapy water. Then rinse the cloth in fresh water and wipe the pearls clean. Dry them with a soft cloth, such as cotton or bamboo. If pearls come into contact with an acidic substance such as fruit juice, vinegar, or other chemicals, immediately wipe them clean with a soft cloth. Be careful not to submerge your pearls in water as this will weaken the silk thread.
How do I maintain pearl jewelry?
From time to time, check the clasps or screws holding your jewelry together. With frequent wear, even well cared for pearls may loosen and will require restringing. If they're worn consistently, pearl strands should be restrung every one to two years.
How should I store pearl jewelry?
Contact with other jewelry may scratch pearls. Avoid tangles by fastening clasps and laying each jewelry piece in a separate compartment of your jewelry box. When traveling, use a protective jewelry pouch or wrap each item in a soft cloth. When stored too long, pearls can dehydrate. The oils from our skin help rehydrate pearls and maintain their luster and color, so wear them frequently.
