How to maintain pearl bracelet
Aragonite, which constitutes pearls, is an unstable mineral and easily turns into calcite, so special attention should be paid to the maintenance of pearl bracelets in daily life. Golden and colorful, it has been recognized as a treasure since ancient times and is a symbol of beauty and preciousness. But if pearls are not well maintained, they will be old-fashioned and lose their luster. 1. Stay away from the kitchen: pearl bracelets are different from mineral ornaments such as crystal necklaces. Because there are tiny pores on the surface of pearls, it is not suitable for them to inhale dirty substances in the air. Pearl bracelets will absorb hair gel, perfume and other substances. So don't wear beautiful pearl bracelets to send electricity, and be careful in the kitchen. Don't wear a beautiful pearl bracelet for cooking, steam and oil smoke may seep into the pearl bracelet and make it yellow. Second, soft cloth wiping: Every time you wear a pearl bracelet (especially on a hot day), you must wipe the pearl bracelet clean before putting it away, so as to maintain the luster of the pearl bracelet. It is best to use delicate and soft flannel instead of paper towels, because some paper towels will wear the pearl bracelet. 3. Keep away from clear water: Do not wash the pearl bracelet with water. Water can enter the pores of beads, which is not only difficult to dry, but also may ferment inside, and the beads may turn green. If you sweat a lot when wearing it, you can wipe it carefully with a wet towel, dry it naturally and put it back in the jewelry box. Occasionally, it can be washed with weak alkaline water, which can keep the pearl bracelet moist (only wash pearls with nylon strings, not pearls with silk strings). After the pearl bracelet turns yellow, it can be remedied in this way: soaking in dilute hydrochloric acid can dissolve the yellowed shell and make the pearl bracelet reproduce its glittering and charming color. But if the color turns yellow badly, it is difficult to reverse it. 4. Anti-acid corrosion: In order to keep the luster and color of the pearl bracelet unaffected, it is necessary to avoid pearls from contacting with acids, alkalis and chemicals, such as perfume, soap and styling water. Don't wear a pearl bracelet when swimming or bathing. Five, anti-scratch hard objects: pearl bracelets should be stored separately to avoid other jewelry scratching pearl skin. If you are going to wear a pearl chain on your clothes, the texture of your clothes should be soft and slippery. Too rough material may scratch your precious pearls. 6. Need air: Don't put the pearl bracelet in the safe for a long time, and don't seal it with plastic bags. Pearl bracelets need fresh air. They should be taken out and worn every few months to give them some air. The pearl bracelet is easy to turn yellow after being put in the box for a long time. 7. Avoid sun exposure: Because the pearl bracelet contains a certain amount of water, it should be placed in a cool place to avoid direct sunlight, or in an excessively dry place to avoid dehydration of the pearl bracelet.
