Pearl Cleaning |
| |
After each wearing, wipe your pearls
with a soft cloth to remove body oil, makeup, and pollution.
Wear your pearls at least once a month, the humidity from your
body does them good. If you wear your pearls on a regular
basis, have them professionally cleaned every year to prevent
dust, powder, and skin oils from accumulating in the bead
holes. Have the beads restrung (and the clasp checked) the
moment you notice the string stretching or looking dingy.

Bone and
Ivory Cleaning |
| |
|
| |
Step 1
Mix a few drops of dish washing soap and a cup warm water
together in a dish.
Step 2
Dip a soft clean cloth into the mixture until cloth is damp and
use to gently wipe the bone or ivory. Do not soak the item as
ivory is very porous and will absorb moisture.
Step 3
Repeat step 1 & 2 but use clean water.
Step 4
Dry with a clean soft cloth or a paper towel. |

Do not try to
lighten bone or ivory. For it darkens in color with age it is a
natural part of the aging process of ivory. The color of antique
ivory is often used as an indicator of age and the patina
protects the ivory as well. |

Marcasite |
| |
|
| |
Never dip
marcasites jewelry in silver or jewelry cleaner it will ruin the
marcasites. |
| |
|
| |
I usually
just rub the top surface with my thumb just enough to shine the
surface. But not too much, to remove the patina from the
marcasites jewelry. Or I use a very little silver cleaner on a
soft cloth or a jewelry polishing cloth. |

Silver |
| |
|
| |
I usually
just rub the top surface with my thumb just enough to shine the
surface. But not too much, to remove the patina from the silver
jewelry. Or I use a very little silver cleaner on a soft cloth
or a jewelry polishing cloth. |

|
| |
Siam Silver |
| |
|
| |
I use a very
little silver cleaner on a soft cloth or a jewelry polishing
cloth. The niello is
the material and process that is used for the colors black,
white and etc. on the silver it is very hard and durable and
silver polish will clean it too. |
