Coral continues to live when you wear it. If you keep your jewelry, it will become matte over time. It will lose some of its luster and regain its natural color.
That's normal. The acidity of your sweat or the ingredients in your perfume can dull the coral's shine. This glossy appearance is achieved through polishing, which makes it even more captivating. Over time, the coral naturally returns to its matte color when it's still in water.
If you wish to keep the red coral shiny year after year, we advise you to remove your jewelry every night.
You can moisturize it once a month by adding a little petroleum jelly, which has the advantage of cleaning it without staining it. After rubbing your pearls with a cloth, your jewelry will gradually regain its beautiful original color and will be ready for its next adventures.
Others will prefer to let it weather naturally so that it regains its original color.
Final tip: avoid swimming in the sea or in a chlorinated pool with your precious pearls. Chemicals and salt are not good for red gold.
