To wear this necklace, simply put it around your neck. It looks great on its own or can be layered with other necklaces. When taking it off, be gentle to avoid tangling the chains and damaging the pearls. Store it in a soft jewelry pouch or box to prevent scratches. Clean the gold chains with a mild jewelry cleaner and a soft cloth. For the pearls, use a damp, soft cloth to wipe them gently and then let them air - dry. Avoid exposing the necklace to harsh chemicals, perfumes, or lotions as they can damage the pearls and the gold finish.
