Material: 925 Sterling Silver; Pearl

The "Last On, First Off" Rule: Pearls are organic gems and are extremely sensitive to chemicals. Always apply hairspray, perfume, makeup, and lotions before putting on your jewelry. Acids and alcohol in beauty products can permanently erode the pearl's nacre (outer layer) and cause the silver to tarnish rapidly. Keep them Dry: Always remove your jewelry before showering, swimming, or exercising. Water, especially chlorinated or salt water, can damage the pearl's luster and weaken the thread or the silver settings. Avoid exposing your jewelry to excessive sweat or humidity. Gentle Cleaning: For Silver: Use a soft, specialized silver polishing cloth to buff the metal elements, being very careful to avoid the pearls. For Pearls: Wipe them gently with a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth after every wear to remove natural skin oils and perspiration. Let them air-dry completely before storing. Never use chemical jewelry cleaners, ultrasonic devices, or steam. Safe Storage: Pearls are relatively soft (2.5–4.5 on the Mohs scale) and can be easily scratched by harder gemstones or sharp metal edges. Store your pieces in a separate fabric pouch or a soft-lined jewelry box, ideally kept away from other jewelry to prevent surface damage. Avoid Extreme Environments: Store your pearls in a cool, dark place. Pearls need to "breathe"—avoid storing them in airtight plastic bags for extended periods, as they can become brittle and lose their luster if they dry out completely.
