Gems

Pearl

Description: Belongs to the organic gemstone group, together with coral and amber. The process of its formation in nature: Pearls develop within mollusks. The mollusk opens and closes its shell, alternatively, in response to the movements of the waves of the sea. When open, grains of sand or parasites can enter the shell. The mollusk identifies the foreign body as something liable to harm it and reacts by secreting layers of a mucose substance, which envelope the foreign body, layer over layer, until an opaque, hard ball forms. This is the pearl. It can take up to ten years for this pearl to form in nature (depending on its size). A natural pearl is rare and high priced. The composition of a pearl is 90% shell and 10% water.Color: Most common are white or cream-colored pearls but there are also pearls with pink, yellow, gray, blue hues, as well as black pearls. Black pearls are rarer and, therefore, more valuable in relation to the other pearls.Cultured Pearls: Over a hundred years ago, the first farm for cultured pearls was developed in Japan. In the farm, foreign bodies (usually pieces of shell) are inserted into large quantities of oysters under controlled conditions. The mollusk reacts and initiates the natural process of pearl development. In order to speed up the growth rate, a wave movement is created, resulting in the production of reasonably sized pearls, within 2 to 3 years. Pearls are cultured in either saline or fresh water.Shape: Pearls set in jewelry are polished and their shape becomes perfectly round. There are also wild pearls which are popular. These have irregular shapes, which are not always round. Flat or eliptic pearls develop according to the shape of the nuclei inserted into the mollusk.Geographical Origin: Japan and China are the main markets for cultured pearls but they are also grown in farms in Polenisia, Australia, Scotland, Ireland, France, Austria, Germany and in Mississippi, USA.Qualities: Pearls are very feminine, symbolizing pure beauty, innocence, honesty and trust, inner peace and tranquility. They are connected in essence to the energy of the moon and arouse awareness to feminine strength and the connection to it.Preservation and Care: Pearls should be kept in an open space, where they can "breathe". They should not be closed in plastic bags. Care should be taken not to spray perfume or any other acidic product, directly onto them. Acidity drys the pearl and causes it to lose its natural luster.History and Myths: There are many legends about pearls. According to one of the legends, it is good to give a pearl to a young child to help in development of personality. It is said that the child will grow to love, be pure, trusting and generous. In this context, strands of pearls are passed on in families, usually from mother to daughter.Birthstone: JuneZodiac Sign: Gemini / Cancer

Maintenance

JEWELRY CARE GUIDE

Gold Jewelry
Over time, elements such as dust, perspiration, and cosmetic products can cause harm to the quality of gold jewelry and diminish its luster. Although gold tends to not tarnish in the same way as silver, lower carat gold jewelry such as 9k and 14k will typically tarnish over time, especially if the jewelry comes into regular contact with chlorine, sulfur, perspiration and other acids. This can be amended by utilizing a soft polishing cloth to both clean and shine the gold jewelry. In the case of heavy tarnishing, gold jewelry should be taken to a professional jeweler for treatment.

Silver Jewelry
Silver jewelry tends to tarnish over time, as silver oxidizes when it comes into contact with oxygen in the air, high humidity, and body acidity. Tarnishing is to be expected with silver jewelry and is not a detect, however proper care and upkeep is key to maintaining and regaining silver the original luster of silver jewelry pieces.

Proper Storage
Silver jewelry should be kept in a closed container, minimizing the exposure to the air.

Proper Care
To avoid tarnishing, remove silver jewelry (rings primarily) before coming into contact with dishwashing soap and other similar solutions, including cosmetic products such as creams and lotions, as well as perfumes. Due to the makeup, perfumes can damage gemstones such as pearls and Roman Glass, as well as tarnish jewelry. Silver jewelry should also be removed before going into the ocean, pool, jacuzzi or spas that contain chlorine or sulfur. Many take added precautions and avoid wearing silver jewelry while bathing and remove pieces while sleeping to limit exposure to the elements.

How to Treat Tarnished Silver Jewelry with a Cleaning Cloth
The simplest and most common method is to polish with a silver cleaning cloth, an inexpensive and effective solution. If the cleaning cloth is stored properly after each use, it will remain in good condition for many polishings and can be used regularly.
When using a cleaning cloth, simply hold the jewelry piece in one hand and gently polish with the other. Apply minimal pressure and continue applying pressure while cleaning until the silver returns to its original luster.

The Original, Traditional DIY Cleaning Method
Always effective and safe for silver jewelry. Always clean with care and dry all jewelry thoroughly after each cleaning. Do not use these solutions with gemstones.

Toothpaste - In the same way you use toothpaste to brush your teeth, toothpaste is safe to use to clean dirt and debris from silver jewelry pieces.
Dishwashing Soap - Immerse the jewelry pieces in water mixed with dishwashing soap. Allow the pieces to soak for a few minutes, remove and dry thoroughly.
Baking Soda & Aluminum Foil - Bring together one liter of water, one tablespoon of baking soda, and a single piece of aluminum foil. Drop silver jewelry into the solution for 10-15 seconds, then remove (carefully) and dry thoroughly.

Gold Plated Silver Jewelry
Gold plated jewelry consists of a thin layer of gold, 0.05% actual gold or less, that coats the base layer of silver. Gold plated jewelry should be treated and cared for in the same way as silver jewelry, avoiding exposure to harmful elements and solutions.

Jewelry with Gemstones
Caring for silver and gold jewelry with gemstones requires added care, as gemstones are natural stones made of varying hardnesses and are liable to break or chip if not carefully handled. Jewelry with gemstones should be treated and cared for in the same way as all silver and gold jewelry, avoiding exposure to harmful elements and solutions. Exposure may cause harm and alter the colors of the gemstones, so added precaution to remove these jewelry pieces before certain activities is important.
As different gemstones have different physical properties, identifying your gemstone is critical before cleaning as they can react very differently to heat, light, acids and scratching. For a deep cleaning, jewelry with gemstones should be taken to a professional jeweler for treatment.

Jewelry with Ancient Coins

Over hundreds of years, throughout the different periods in the Land of Israel, metallic coins were struck by the various rulers and served as circulation coins. These ancient coins have been unearthed during archaeological excavations in Israel and dated to around 3,000 years or more ago. The coins were struck during the period from the second century BCE to the second century CE. Remaining in the depths of the earth for very many years, these coins became coated with a patina, the result of reactions to chemical compounds deep in the earth.

The ancient coins mounted in our jewelry, as well as those actually sold as ancient coins, were found in archaeological diggings in Israel and are sold by license granted by the Israel Antiquities Authority to Israel Coins and Medals Corp., in the G.R.A.S group.
Exposing the coins to water (showering, bathing in the sea, pool, high body acidity) will cause tarnishing and loss of their natural patina. Details on the coins are also liable to be rubbed away by water and a damaged coin cannot be restored or repaired.
Our Ancient Coin Jewelry has been meticulously designed and handcrafted. Each piece is absolutely unique for no one coin is exactly the same as another. Each jewelry piece deserves special attention and special care when worn.
