Pearls of Wisdom...

Care of Pearls:
Pearls are quite soft and should be treated very delicately. Never use ultrasonic cleaners or steamers as they are harsh and can damage the pearl. Wipe gently with a soft cloth after each wearing or, for more thorough cleanings, use mild soap and water. If knotted, make sure cord is completely dry before wearing.



Meaning of Pearls:
It is thought by some that pearls promote sincereity, truth and loyalty. The inner glow pearls is thought to soothe, calm and focus attention. Pearls are also believed to signify innocence and faith.

Girls Love Pearls!

Pearls never go out of style and never disappoint! They are a staple in every woman's wardrobe from elegant and chic to edgy and sexy.




Pearls are one of the earliest gemstones found, most likely along the coastline of India. They've been used for personal adornment and enjoyed throughout the world for thousands of years.

Most pearls today are cultured. Marine and freshwater mollusks (oysters and mussels) are collected and a small shell bead placed inside. The mollusks are then returned to the water where they make the pearl. It takes approximately 3 to 7 years for mollusks to produce a single pearl!

Let us know what you think about pearls!  How do you wear your pearls? Long and multi-layered or big and chunky? Any way you choose to rock your pearls, we "Love That!".
