Here’s a simple guide to clean and maintain your pearl jewelry. Thank me later
1. Gentle Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe the pearls after each wearing. This helps remove any oils or dirt that may have accumulated.
2. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Never use harsh chemicals or cleaners on your pearls, as they can damage the delicate surface. This includes household cleaners, bleach, and alcohol.
3. Storage: Store your pearls separately from other jewelry to prevent scratching. A soft pouch or jewelry box with a fabric lining is ideal. Avoid storing pearls in plastic bags, as they can emit chemicals that may harm the pearls.
4. Avoid Exposure:Keep your pearls away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, as these can cause them to become discolored or dry out.
5. Regular Wear: Pearls benefit from being worn regularly as the natural oils from your skin help maintain their luster. However, avoid wearing pearls when swimming or showering as exposure to water can weaken the silk thread.
6. Re-stringing: If you notice that the silk thread between your pearls is frayed or stretched, it’s time to have your necklace or bracelet re-strung by a professional jeweler.
By following these simple steps, you can keep your pearl jewelry looking beautiful for years to come!
