Care Instructions:
Always put your pearls on last, after getting dressed, applying perfume, make-up, lotions, and hairspray or hair products. Also, always remove your pearls first before getting undressed. After wearing, gently wipe your pearls with a damp cloth to remove any perfume, makeup, or grime that might have come in contact with your pearls. Then dry them immediately using another cloth, and let them air dry the rest of the way if they aren't totally dry before storing them. If your pearls are visibly stained, you can mix a solution of lukewarm water and mild dish soap, dip a soft cleaning cloth in it, and wipe the pearls. Make sure the pearls are totally dry before storage. Do not wear your pearls in the pool, bath, sauna, or shower. Pearl jewelry should never be submerged in water. Never clean pearls with a steam or ultrasonic jewelry cleaner. Both of these methods are likely to damage the outer layer of the pearl. Pearls are prone to scratches, so store this item separately, preferably in a fabric-lined container. To prevent your pearls from getting brittle, dry, discolored, and eventually cracking, wear them at least a few times a month so they get some moisture.
