The bracelet consists of small detail pearls, letters and rope. We recommend that you do not shower with the jewelry. It is best to keep them away from water, perfumes, alcohol and other harmful products to prevent the pearls from fading. When exposed to any of the above products, the pearls will tarnish and turn silver or black. Products such as cosmetics, hairspray, perfume, deodorant, body lotion, etc. can speed up the oxidation process. Store your jewelry in a sealed bag protected from air and in a dark area.
