Akoya pearls are the higher end of the pearl trade: fewer to a harvest, more even in shape and deeper in lustre than freshwater, and priced accordingly. This is a piece bought for a wedding, an anniversary or a milestone, and handed on afterwards.
Pearls are organic and soft — about 2.5 on the hardness scale, against 10 for a diamond — and their surface is nacre, which perfume, hairspray, lotion, vinegar and chlorine will dull or etch. Put the necklace on last, after scent and cosmetics, and wipe it with a soft damp cloth after wearing. Never use an ultrasonic cleaner, a steamer or any abrasive. Store it flat, apart from harder jewelry that can scratch it, and not sealed in plastic, which dries the nacre. Strung pearls should be restrung every few years if worn often.
These pearls are bleached, the standard treatment used to even the color of white freshwater cultured pearls. It is permanent and needs no special care beyond the above.
