Pearls are organic gemstones, which are easily corroded by acids or other chemicals. To clean, use a soft cotton cloth to wipe away sweat and stains after wearing.
As pearls contain a certain amount of water, they should be placed in a cool place to avoid damage.
Do not clean your pearls with water. Water can enter the small hole of the bead, which is not only difficult to wipe dry, but also may ferment inside.
In order to keep the lustre and colour of pearl from damage, please avoid:
Sweating while wearing pearls
Contacting pearls with acids, alkalis and cosmetics, such as perfume, soap, hair spray, shower gel, nail polish and skin care products.
Wearing pearl jewellery when swimming or bathing. It is recommended to wear your favourite pearl jewellery after make-up.
Pearl jewellery should also avoid contact with coloured liquid to avoid being dyed with colours.
Direct exposure to the sun or in a too dry place to avoid dehydration and yellowing of pearls.
Sealing your pearls in plastic bags. They should be taken out and worn every few months to let them breathe.

Exposing your emeralds to hot lights, excessive solar radiation, or other sources of heat as they may dry out fracture fillings
