| Boo,
I have a lot of sterling silver jewelry, most of it Native American. I was advised many years ago to use plain toothpaste, because turquoise is very delicate and silver cleaners were too harsh. I gently massage the toothpaste onto the area with my fingers. If it is really tarnished, your fingers will turn black but it will wash off. I rinse with tap water and gently pat dry. I have never tried it with pearl jewelry but if you got non abrasive toothpaste (good luck with that-try the health food store near you) and avoided the pearl area, it may work out ok. Good Luck!
