Your jewelry featuring red imperial jasper beads and white pearl beads combines two materials with different care requirements. Imperial jasper is a variety of jasper known for its vibrant colors and patterns. White pearls, on the other hand, are delicate organic gemstones composed primarily of calcium carbonate and organic proteins.

Cleaning

Red Imperial Jasper beads
Gentle Cleaning:
• Wipe the jasper beads with a soft, damp cloth or a soft brush to remove dirt, oils, and other residues. According to Rananjay Exports, Imperial Jasper designer jewelry should be cleaned with a soft cloth or a little water and mild soap. • Red Jasper chokers can be cleaned by gently wiping them with a soft cloth.
Mild Soap and Water:
• For more thorough cleaning, you can use a solution of mild dish soap and lukewarm water. Gently scrub the beads with a soft brush, then rinse them thoroughly under warm, running water to remove all soap residue.
Thorough Drying:
• After cleaning, pat the beads dry completely with a soft, lint-free cloth.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals and Ultrasonic/Steam Cleaners:
• Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals like bleach, ammonia, or ultrasonic cleaners, as these can damage the jasper beads and their surface treatment.

White Pearl Beads
Gentle Cleaning:
• After each wear, gently wipe pearls with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove oils and perspiration. A soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water can also be used for cleaning. For a deeper clean, use lukewarm water with a drop of gentle soap. Wipe carefully, rinse with a damp cloth, and dry flat on a soft towel.
Never Soak Pearls:
• Avoid soaking pearls in water, as this can weaken the string and potentially damage the pearl surface or binding glue.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals and Abrasive Materials:
• Keep pearls away from household cleaners, chlorine, saltwater, and acidic substances that can erode their nacre. Do not use abrasive materials or harsh cleaning products that can scratch the surface. Never use detergents, household cleaners, commercial jewelry cleaners, or tarnish removers on pearl jewelry.
Avoid Ultrasonic and Steam Cleaners:
• These methods can be too harsh for pearls. Pearls should never be heated in an ultrasonic cleaner.
Professional Cleaning:
• Consider a yearly professional cleaning for your pearl jewelry to check for wear and tear, loose settings, or stringing issues.

Protecting and storing
Last On, First Off:
• Put on your jewelry after applying lotions, perfumes, hairspray, and makeup, and remove it before getting undressed.
Avoid Contact with Chemicals:
• Chemicals in cosmetics and cleaning products can damage both the imperial jasper and the pearls.
Remove Before Activities:
• Take off your jewelry before activities like swimming, showering, exercising, or doing household chores.
Separate Storage:
• Store imperial jasper and pearls separately in a soft pouch or a lined jewelry box to prevent scratches. Pearls should not be stored in airtight containers as they need moisture and airflow.
Cool, Dry Place:
• Store your jewelry in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.

Re-stringing:
• If the jewelry is strung with pearls, consider having it restrung every 1-2 years, especially with frequent wear, to prevent breakage. Choose a reputable jeweler for restringing.

By following these care instructions, you can help ensure that your red imperial jasper and white pearl bead jewelry remains beautiful and vibrant for years to come.
