Did You Know?
Given proper care, cultured pearls will remain clean, bright, and lustrous for generations. Always put your pearls on after you’ve applied your makeup, wipe them after every wear with a soft moist cloth, store separately from other jewellery in a soft cloth pouch or covered compartment, and consider having your pearls re-strung every five or six years.
