Professional Tips for Pearl Jewelry Care

Daily Care
If substances such as cosmetics, hair spray, or perfume adhere to your jewels, they will lose their radiance, absorbing dirt and dust and causing alteration or loss of colour. Be sure to put on your jewelry after you do your make-up, and to wipe your jewelry with a soft cloth after use.

Maintenance

No matter how carefully you take care of your jewelry, small parts may come loose. We recommend that you carefully check such parts as the hooks that support the jewels, the clasps of necklaces, the screws of earrings and brooch pins.

Storage

Always fasten clasps and pins so that chains do not get tangled and jewels do not get scratched from rubbing against one another. Then lay each item out separately, one by one. If you carry your jewelry around, be sure to put it into a jewelry pouch.

Cleaning

If you feel that the radiance of your jewelry has diminished, take it to a specialist. Cleaning with ultrasonic cleanser and other methods may lead to damage, so we recommend caution.
