Care Guide

Unlike gemstones, pearls are organic. The nanostructure of a pearl's surface is what gives it its iridescence and lustre. This surface is tough, but it can still be scratched or damaged. Treating it with care will make your pearls last for many years to come.

Activities

Please take off your pearls when doing the following activities:

  • Swimming or showering — pearls can handle water, but avoid subjecting them to rapid changes in temperature or exposure to chemicals in the swimming pool, shampoo or body wash.
  • Exercise — you risk scratching them accidentally.

Cleaning

  • You can clean your pearls with a soft, slightly damp cloth.
  • For a deeper clean, you can use mild soapy water; make sure to rinse after. Please avoid using harsh chemicals.
  • We recommend cleaning after wearing them.

Wearing

We recommend that you put on your pearls as the finishing touch to your outfit. This minimises the pearls' exposure to cosmetics, makeup and fragrance. Taking them off first is also a good idea.

Storing

  • Avoid storing your pearls in an excessively dry or hot environment — they can crack.
  • Store them in their own pouch to prevent accidental scratches.

Enjoy them

Don't forget why you bought them, wear them!
