Your pearls should be restrung every 1-2 years depending on how often they are worn. Listed below are some valuable tips to ensure your pearls keep their beautiful lustre and minimize damage to nacre (the oysters’ secretion around the mother of pearl bead, which creates the pearl).
- Try to minimize contact with perfume, make-up, hair spray and face and body creams as this can cause the pearl to suffocate and lose its lustre.
- After wearing, wipe with a damp cloth and place in a pearl pouch or box.
