How to Care for Pearl Earrings
Pearls are more delicate than gemstones like diamonds or sapphires and require gentle care to maintain their natural beauty.
Daily Maintenance
- Put your pearl earrings on last, after applying makeup, perfume, or hairspray
- Wipe them gently with a soft, damp cloth after each wear to remove skin oils or residue
Storage Tips
- Store separately in a soft pouch or lined box to avoid scratching from other jewelry
- Never store pearls in airtight containers, as they need moisture to retain their luster
Cleaning Recommendations
- Avoid ultrasonic or steam cleaners
- If needed, clean using lukewarm water and a tiny amount of mild soap
- Rinse and dry with a soft cloth—avoid soaking pearls for extended periods
With proper care, 14k gold pearl earrings and other pearl pieces can last generations.
