Naughton Braun Demi-Fine Pearl Jewelry FAQs
How can I be sure of the authenticity of your demi-fine jewelry?
Our pearls represent a commitment to fine quality and outstanding value at legendary low prices. All of our pieces are carefully handcrafted to order. More specific product information about jewelry items may be available by contacting us at HiPretty@naughtonbraun.com.
My pearls do not look exactly like the Website photo, why?
Pearls are natural made products and as such, can vary somewhat from pearl to pearl. All size descriptions on the Naughton Braun Website represent the average size per description, and many times the piece you receive will be somewhat larger than the descriptions.
How do I take care of my pearl jewelry?
We have put together a guide on our pearl/gem stone jewelry which can be found at “Naughton Braun Guide to Pearl Jewelry Care and Safe-keeping”, but the basic rule to remember is: Last on, first off. Your pearls are delicate, and hairspray, perfume, and lotion can significantly impact the lustre and durability of your piece, so put your jewelry on last and when you are done wearing it, take it off first and then carefully store it in the provided velvet bag.
