For centuries, pearls have been called the “Queen of Gems” thanks to their regal quality and appeal. Indeed, the most expensive jewelry in world history were necklaces strung with matching pearl spheres. That same identical quality is seen in these earrings’ pearls.
Since ancient times, pearls have been revered for their beauty and rarity. The irregular spherical shape of the Baroque pearl makes it particularly magnificent. The Hindu god Krishna found pearls so exquisite that he purportedly bought them as a gift for his daughter on her wedding day. The tradition of wearing pearls while walking down the aisle continues to this day.

The porous nature of Baroque pearls demands extra care. To maintain their luster: 1) avoid exposure to household chemicals like hair spray, perfume and cleaning products; 2) gently wipe them with a warm damp cloth to remove body oils and perspiration; 3) when storing, keep them separate from other gemstones and metals that may scratch them.
950 silver should be stored in an airtight container with a soft lining. Cleaning with soap and water and buffing with a soft cloth will keep your 950 silver shiny as new. Avoid exposure of your 950 silver to abrasive cleansers and bleach, which may cause discoloration.
