Caring for your mother-of-pearl cameo

  • Mother-of-Pearl is a hydrated gemstone, so it is essential to keep it away from direct sunlight, strong sources of heat or very dry atmospheres. If Mother-of-Pearl is left to dry out its surfaces crack and it becomes less resistant to wear and tear.

  • Never use strong abrasives or alcohol to polish your Mother-of-Pearl, as this will destroy its play of color.

  • Store your Mother-of-Pearl in a dark cool place, and keep it looking its best by wiping it occasionally with a damp cloth.

  • Wear it often; Mother-of-Pearl loves the bodies' natural oils.
