Method for keeping luster and color of pearl
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of pearl processing, in particular to a method for keeping luster and color of pearls.
Background
Pearl is an organic gem, mainly produced in seawater pearl shellfish and freshwater mussel. The pearl is mineral bead containing calcium carbonate generated by endocrine action of shellfish, and is formed by gathering a large amount of tiny aragonite crystals. The pearls are various in types, shapes and colors. In the international gem world, pearls are also listed as lucky stones for june birthdays, and commemorative stones for marrying thirteen and thirty years. Pearls with magnificent colors and elegant qualities, symbolize health, purity, richness and happiness, and have been favored by people since ancient times. However, the beauty of the pearl is not unique, and the pearl just taken out from the pearl shell body has a thin film of organic matter and a small amount of flaws on the surface, and needs to be processed by bleaching, polishing, brightening and the like, so that the beauty of the pearl is fully presented to people.
Although the pearl is beautiful, the color and luster of the pearl can be greatly changed when people wear the pearl. The pearl yellow of old people means that the pearl becomes yellow after being worn for a long time. In addition, the luster of the pearl can change after the pearl is worn, and the change is particularly obvious on the fresh water pearl.
After the pearl jewelry is purchased, wearing needs to be reduced, and careful care needs to be carried out, so that the occurrence of color change and light loss of the pearls can be delayed. This is contrary to the original intention of people to buy and wear pearls and to show charm and nobility, resulting in that either pearls are worn less frequently or pearls quickly change color and lose light.
The reason for discoloration and light loss of pearls is that the pearls are in contact with the skin in the wearing process of people, and the color organic substances or other organic substances in the pearls are corroded by sweat and cosmetics on the skin. Therefore, pearl processing enterprises need to perform the light and color preservation treatment on pearls on the basis of the existing processing procedures, so as to improve the use value of the pearls.
Chinese invention patent CN101642316B (published as 2011, 09/07) discloses a method for fixing color and brightening colored pearls, which comprises preparing a solution for fixing color and brightening colored pearls, placing the colored pearls in the solution, and alternately soaking at 0-15 deg.c and 38-43 deg.c to substantially change the hardness, color and luster and luminosity of the colored pearls. Although the patent can improve the hardness, the color and the luminosity of the pearl, the sweat of the skin can still corrode the pearl along with the use of the pearl, so that the color and the luminosity of the pearl become dark and lose color gradually along with the time.
