Baroque freshwater pearls have been cultured using a host mollusk in a lake environment. The color is a factor of the mollusk mantle color, the growth environment, and perhaps a dyeing process after cultivation. To maintain pearls for years to come, care for them after wearing by storing in a non-airtight area, enclose them in a soft pouch when near items that could damage the nacre, and wash them gently with tepid water & a very mild soap. Finally, lay the strand flat to completely dry the cording before restoring the strand. With these simple steps, your pearls will be heirlooms to pass down generation to generation.
