Jacki Kennedy and Audrey Hepburn have already shown us that a pearl necklace is a magnificent piece of jewelry. But how do you keep pearls looking shiny? Here are a few care tips:
Cleaning pearls with household remedies
What is needed
- Soap flake solution
Instructions
Place the pearls in a soap flake solution for a few hours; this will make both the pearls and the silk thread look beautiful again.
Caution:Never clean pearls with acidic agents, as this will dissolve them.
Pearls want to be worn
You should wear pearls on your skin as often as possible, as this preserves their color and luster. Be careful with hairspray and perfume – wipe them off as soon as possible, as they unfortunately damage the pearls.
