How to Recover Pearl's Natural Luster ?

Without any caring for several decades ,you may be shocked that the natural luster of pearl has gone. Due to the unsteady mineral aragonite, which is the main component of pearl , it will become common calcite and turns yellow gradually.


If the yellowing is still limited to the surface, we can adopt a method to recover its natural gloss.

Soak it in the 1%--5% diluted hydrochloric acid or hydrogen peroxide for a moment . Wait until the yellow shell has been dissolved and take pearl out quickly, wash and dry it and then you will find the aging skin is removed, and the glorious charming color comes back again.Do remember do not soak it in the diluted hydrochloric acid for a long time so as to prevent the pearl from being destroyed.

The dominant theme should always be simple when man with pearl jewelry. Stringing one or more Tahitian pearls together with a leather rope , and then just matching with the casual dressing, you will be the arbiter of fashion.

Reveal you the Mystery of Perfect Pearl

Tens of thousands of pearl lovers are puzzled about whether there are perfect pearls in the world or not. It remains as one of secrets of nature.Actually, the appearance of pearl is the reflection of calcium carbonate crystals and shell keratin.In an ideal state, the surface should be smooth and clean. Due to the complex and changing external environment, the skin tends to deviate from the ideal state and many defects are formed, such as grooves, bump, spot, cracks, pits, black spots, gaps, tip, etc. Little change in water temperature and ion concentration can lead to the steady growth of crystal and structure, and finally result in relatively smooth skin.However, it is also the common sense that water temperature and ion concentration are impossible unchanged all the time and then the blemish on the skin is inevitable.

For better understanding, Shecy Pearls tries to take some examples. A baby comes to the world without any flaws in the skin? When a baby is born, she or he will be an unique individual with her or his own birthmark or mole more or less. As regards gold, we cannot find 100% pure gold in the world. Let alone gems and jades.The comparison between pearl and human being proves that imperfect is nature.

Never worry about the imperfect pearl will ruin your beauty. It is said that 1.5 meters is the standard social distance ,which is far enough to see the blemish on your pearl. Other people will not easy to find the blemish even in a closer distance. What they focus and surprise about is your elegant beauty the pearl gives to you.

ShecyPearls makes great efforts to diminish the imperfection such as concealing the blemish by punching . What we try to convince you is that every pearl is a child of nature with its own characteristic, thus we should respect them and cherish them as our babies.

How to Care Your Pearl Jewelry

Pearl is composed of about 2 to 4% water along with calcium carbonate and an organic binder called conchiolin. Because of the poor chemical stability, it is easily oxidized and turns to be yellow. However, if you take care of pearl properly, it can remain fine for more than 100 years. On the contrary, it will be devalued without proper treatment.Therefore, please keep in mind the following suggestions.

The best way for caring pearls is to wear pearl jewelry as much as possible. Oil and sweat from our body can protect the pearl's skin.

Keep away from the kitchen. Pearls are easily damaged by chemicals or eaten away by acids such as vinegar and lemon juice. Heat can also turn pearls brown or dry them out and make them crack.

Never clean by water. The chlorine in the water will damage the luster.Cleaning them with a moist towel and laying the pearls flat on it. After the towel is dry, they should be dry.

Safe deposit boxes are not the best place for pearls.Please keep in a jewelry box with silk. Try to take them out occasionally and expose them to humidity or moisture.

Keep away from perfume, hair spray and cosmetics. And store pearls alone in case that they may be scratched by other jewelry.
