The thing about cleaning pearls is maintenance – if you take good care of your pearls now, you won’t have to worry about it for the future (of course, this should be the way for all your precious jewels…)
A good rule to have is that your pearls should be the last thing you are putting on when you are getting dressed, and the first thing that you take off. After removing your piece, quickly wipe it down with a damp cloth to remove any chemicals or skin oils, and store them separately from all your other jewelry.
If you have to do a cleaning , clean your pearl jewelry with something gentle on the hands, like diluted dish detergent. Let the pearlsĀ soak for a bit, and then rinse gently with water.
