How to take care of your pearls
Remember to provide a particular care for your pearls.
The pearl is an organic gem, so it is somewhat different from other gems, stones and other precious metals. It is less hard, more sensitive and can therefore more easily be scratched, split or damaged.
Substances such as hair sprays, perfumes, perspiration can tarnish the luster of your pearls, making their shine disappear.

Because of their delicacy, pearls should be stored separately from your other jewelry.
If possible in a separate case or in a soft fabric to avoid contact with your other hard jewelry to avoid scratches and other damage.
Pearl necklace Have your necklace or bracelet put on once a year if you wear them often.
The necklaces and bracelets are mounted on silk threads so that the latter do not damage your pearls. A knot is made between each pearl, so your pearls do not touch each other and therefore cannot wear out prematurely.
In addition, in case of breakage of the silk thread, you do not risk losing all the pearls composing your jewel.
If you follow these tips, you will keep your pearls mounted for decades and pass them on, without a doubt, as a family heirloom, from generation to generation, while preserving the luster and luster they had at the first day.
