Always remove before showering and swimming in salt water and chlorinated pools. Pearls are sensitive to heat and should not be stored in airtight containers because this can cause the pearl to dry out. They need to draw in moisture, so loosely wrapping in a soft cloth and placing in a slightly opened jewelry drawer is best. Pearls can be cleaned gently with warm water using a soft cloth. Never scrub a pearl or use ultrasonic cleaners. If you have any questions just click "message seller" on our homepage. Thank you for visiting our jewelry shop, Linda and Joe .
