    Default Pearls and silver

    I want to make some earrings with tiny pearls on silver wire is there a problem doing this in terms of cleaning the jewellery? Also anyone know were i can buy abt 1.5mm cream or white pearls, unless tiny shell pearls or similar would be more practical?

    Do you mean routine after sale cleaning by your customer or your polishing?

    You could use argentium wire instead of sterling if you are concerned about tarnishing.

    A silver polishing cloth would be fine. But any sort of immersive dip type cleaning would damage the pearls, which would absorb the chemicals.

    Hi Sheen. Whenever I make pearl pendant necklaces or pearl earrings, I usually buy a dozen string pearl necklaces from a pearl farm supplier which is then exported and shipped to my home. It's pretty cheap including the shipping fee and if I sell the pearl pendant necklaces and earring separately, I earn a big chunk of profit. However, if you buy string of pearl necklaces, the pearls will have a tiny hole at the top and bottom but nothing to be bothered of. Look up Pearl Palace on Facebook.
