FAQs
What are the different types of pearls in this collection?
Freshwater pearls are grown in freshwater mussels. They have natural variation in shape.
Keshi pearls are irregularly shaped non-beaded pearls made mostly of nacre.
Biwa pearls are freshwater pearls with longer, more elongated shapes.
Rice pearls are small freshwater pearls with an oval shape, similar to a grain of rice.
Coin pearls are flat, round freshwater pearls with a coin-like profile.
Potato pearls are rounded freshwater pearls that are not perfectly spherical.
How do you care for pearl earrings?
Cleaning: Wipe pearls with a soft, dry cloth after wearing. If needed, use a barely damp cloth, then dry immediately. Avoid cleaners, alcohol, and ultrasonic machines.
Wearing: Put pearls on last. Do not wear them in the shower, pool, or ocean, and avoid makeup, perfume, hairspray, sunscreen, and tanning products.
Storing: Store pearls dry and separate, ideally in a soft pouch. Keep them away from harder jewellery that can scratch or rub the surface.
Will my pearls look exactly like the ones in the photos?
Not exactly. These are natural freshwater pearls with organic forms, so each pearl will vary slightly in shape, surface texture, and lustre, which is normal, and the reason why every pair is unique.
