It doesn't get much more delicate than pearls. Pearls are organic gemstones born in the sea and are vulnerable to alkaline, humidity, and acid.
To preserve your pearls’ radiance, it's important to take care of your pearl jewellery the proper way. Read on for our advice when it comes to looking after your pearl jewellery.
Tip #1: Keep on its own
Pearls do enjoy some privacy, so they're best kept on their own. To avoid scratches by metals or other gemstones, it's best to keep them safe in a soft cloth or pouch, ideally made from silk.
Tip #2: Avoid chemicals
Pearls are made from natural, organic materials. Therefore, you must keep pearls away from perfumes, cosmetics, hairspray, and makeup. Make sure to take off your pearl jewellery before cleaning the house, as chemicals with abrasive properties may cause irreversible damage to your pearls.
Tip #3: Wear your pearls
They say, pearls want to be worn and they're absolutely right. Pearls grow in the water, and as you might expect, they love moisture! Keeping them in a box for extended periods may cause pearls to dehydrate and lose their sparkle. So, what are you waiting for? Wear your pearls!
Tip #4: Clean your pearls
If the natural shine of your pearls starts to fade away, take it to a specialist. Read our care guide to learn more about how you can clean your pearls, or contact us for personalised advice. If you wear your freshwater pearls regularly, we recommend having them cleaned once a year.
Tip #5: Don't swim with pearls
Although pearls enjoy moisture, too much water can cause damage. Not to mention that the chlorine in swimming pools can also cause pearls to lose their shine. Therefore, it's a good idea to take off your pearl jewellery before getting into the pool, sea, or bathtub.
Tip #6: Don't hang pearl necklaces and bracelets
It might sound like a good idea, but hanging your pearl necklaces and bracelets can weaken the stringing material, causing breakage over time. It's best to store your pearls in a separate compartment in your jewellery box to avoid any big surprises.
