Baroque pearls have been popular for some time, so you may have heard of them.

These irregular pearls break the traditional view that pearls must be perfectly round and smooth. Baroque pearls are suitable for modern women who want to express themselves. They are also perfect for those who like weirdness and uniqueness.

Baroque pearls are perfect for people who want to make a statement. This is different from the traditional classic appearance of typical pearls. It looks elegant and elegant, but it is different.

This is a new way to view pearls, and it eliminates the idea that pearls must be perfect. Baroque pearls celebrate imperfection and individuality, which fits perfectly with today’s view of expressing oneself through fashion.

Why choose baroque pearls?
In addition to the obvious physical differences with traditional pearls, choosing baroque pearls also has many advantages.

These are 3 reasons that distinguish Baroque pearls from traditional pearls and make them a great choice.

1- Unique shape
This is the most obvious difference, and in the past, it was considered a disadvantage, but today, it is the shape of Baroque pearls that makes them so popular.

Due to their unique shape, each baroque pearl is unique and has its own personality, giving them a natural, organic appearance. If not impossible, it is difficult to find two identical Baroque pearls. As fashion trends and tastes become more and more unconventional, self-expression has attracted much attention, and baroque pearls have become more and more important.

2- Creative jewelry design
Because of the shape of baroque pearls, jewellery designers have brought challenges, they often come up with novel ways to show the beauty of pearls.

Traditional pearls can only be set in many ways, but for baroque pearls, jewelers try to emphasize the unique shape of the gem. This usually leads to one-off, unique jewelry designs.

3- Extraordinary gloss
Baroque pearls are usually very shiny, thanks in part to the uneven surface of the pearl, and their interaction with light is different from a perfect pearl.
When light penetrates the nacre that makes up the pearl, it reflects off the crystal and returns to the viewer's eye, creating the luster we look for in the pearl. Baroque pearls have more angles and ridges than round pearls, allowing light to be refracted from all directions. Continue reading

1. In order to keep the luster and color of the pearls unaffected, avoid contacting the pearls with acids, alkalis and chemicals, such as perfume, soap, styling water, shower gel, skin care products, etc. Do not wear pearl jewelry for swimming or bathing. Babies who love makeup should remember to put on your favorite pearl jewelry after makeup.

2. Every time you wear a pearl, you must wipe the pearl clean and then put it away, so that the luster of the pearl can be maintained. It is best to use sheepskin or delicate flannel, do not use facial paper, because the friction of some facial paper will wear the pearls.

3. Do not clean pearl necklaces with water. Water can enter the small holes of the beads, which is not only difficult to wipe dry, but may also ferment inside, and the beads may turn green. If you sweat a lot while wearing it, wipe it off with a soft, slightly damp, clean cotton cloth when you are not using it, and air-dry it. Do not wash it with any detergent, dry it naturally and put it back in the jewelry box.

4. There are tiny pores on the surface of the pearl, so it is not suitable for it to inhale the polluted substances in the air. Pearls can absorb substances such as hair spray and perfume. So don't go to the barbershop with beautiful pearls, and be careful when in the kitchen. Do not wear beautiful pearls for cooking. Steam and oily smoke may penetrate into the pearls and make them yellow.

5. Since pearls contain a certain amount of water, they should be kept in a cool place, avoid direct exposure to the sun, or put them in a place that is too dry to avoid dehydration and yellowing of the pearls.

6. Each time you store pearl jewelry, store it separately to prevent other jewelry from scratching the pearl skin. If you plan to wear the bead chain on your clothes, the texture of the clothes is better to be softer. Materials that are too rough may scratch your precious pearls.

7. Do not keep the pearls in the safe for a long time, and do not use plastic bags to seal them. Fresh air is needed between the pearls, and they must be worn out every few months to let them breathe. Otherwise the pearl will turn yellow easily.

8. The silk thread is easy to loosen after a long time. You can check whether the silk thread is loose and replace it every 1 to 2 years. It is best to re-string the pearl every 3 years, of course, it depends on the number of times you wear it. The dirt that enters the small hole of the bead will generate friction, causing the nylon thread to break, and the broken position will be forced close to the button.

9. Don't hang the bead chain for a long time. Over time, the thread will become loose and deformed, so it should be stored flat.

10. Also, avoid contact of pearl jewelry with colored liquids, so as not to be stained with colors that are difficult to wash off.

The Baroque is a style of architecture, music, dance, painting, sculpture and other arts that flourished in Europe from the early 17th century until the 1740s. 

Baroque came to English from a French word meaning "irregularly shaped." At first, the word in French was used mostly to refer to pearls. Eventually, it came to describe an extravagant style of art characterized by curving lines, gilt, and gold.

Originally, Europeans used this term to refer to "works that lack the balanced characteristics of classicism". It originated from the derogatory term used by people who advocated classicism in the 18th century, which was different from the Renaissance style in the 17th century.

The Baroque style was initiated in Italy in the 16th century and became popular in Europe during the 17th century. It is an art form that completely deviates from the spirit of Renaissance art. Classicists regard Baroque as a degenerate and disintegrating art. But now the word Baroque has lost its original derogatory meaning and only refers to an artistic style popular in Europe in the 17th century, and people have a fairer evaluation of this art.

Baroque art is full of strong emotional Catholicism and the strange decoration of the monarch's palace. The characteristics of the style can be summarized as:

• It has luxurious features, both religious and hedonistic;
• It is a passionate art, which breaks the tranquility and harmony of reason, has a strong color of profusion, and emphasizes the rich imagination of the artist;
• Emphasize the movement strongly, movement and change can be said to be the soul of Baroque art;
• Pay attention to the spatial and three-dimensional sense of the work;
• It is comprehensive, in addition to focusing on the integration of architecture, sculpture, and painting in architecture, it also absorbs some factors and imaginations in the fields of literature, comedy, music, etc.;
