How to care for your pearls

The pearl is the only gemstone produced by a living creature. Pearls and their beauty are therefore very special. Your pearls will retain their special beauty with just a little care.

• Never allow pearls to come in contact with anything which might contain acid. This includes detergents, hair spray and perfume.
• Always remove a pearl ring before bathing or washing dishes.
• Apply hairspray and perfume before putting on your pearls. Over a period of years the acids in perspiration can dull pearls.

The lustre of your pearls can be preserved by occasionally cleaning them with a solution of mild soap and warm water. Follow this with drying and polishing with a clean soft cloth. This simple care will insure the lasting beauty of your pearls.
