Pearl can be worn every day but will require periodic restringing. Do not wear them in the ocean, pool or shower as it will damage the silk string. Be mindful of any chemicals, soap, perfume or lotion as it can gradually wear down the pearls and they will lose their luster.

You can carefully clean the metal on your pearl jewelry by using a polishing cloth but avoid any harsh chemicals. If it needs a deeper cleaning use a small amount of white toothpaste on a q-tip to gently polish the metal. The ground marble in the toothpaste works as a gentle abrasive without discoloring or damaging the surrounding pearls.

Pearls are a soft organic gemstone and do require some special care. They should be periodically cleaned with a soft cloth to remove dirt, oils and other contaminants. Cleaners should never be used and water should only be used rarely. Perfume should never be sprayed after pearls are put on and lotions should be use sparingly. Pearls do contain a small amount of water and can dry out if stored in a sealed safe or safety deposit box for extended periods. They should be protected from extreme heat or cold.
