Types of Pearls

Freshwater pearls are the most commonly found pearls, and they come in a range of sizes and colours, from white and cream to pink and lavender. They are also the most affordable type of pearl, making them a popular choice for those who want to add a touch of elegance to their outfits without breaking the bank.

Within the freshwater pearl spectrum, you'll find a huge array of shapes and sizes. Rice pearls, potato pearls, button pearls, fireball or flame ball baroque pearls, baroque pearls, seed pearls...the list goes on!

Akoya pearls are the classic Japanese pearls, known for their high lustre and round shape. They are typically white or cream-coloured and are often used in classic pearl necklaces. South Sea pearls are the largest and rarest type of pearls, found in the waters of Australia, Indonesia, and the Philippines. They are known for their exquisite beauty and high value, making them a popular choice for luxurious jewellery pieces.

Pearl earrings are another classic piece of jewellery that never goes out of style. They add a touch of sophistication to any outfit and can be worn for any occasion. From simple pearl studs to dangling pearl earrings, there is a style to suit everyone's taste. Pearl earrings also make a perfect gift, especially for those who love classic and timeless pieces of jewellery.

When it comes to choosing pearl earrings, there are a few things to consider. First, decide on the size of the pearl. Smaller pearls are perfect for everyday wear, while larger pearls are ideal for special occasions. Second, choose the colour of the pearl based on your complexion and personal style. Finally, choose the type of backing you prefer, whether it's a screw-back, lever-back, or a simple post.

The Versatility of Pearl Bracelets

Pearl bracelets are a perfect accessory to any outfit. They can be worn alone or layered with other bracelets for a more dramatic effect. Pearl bracelets come in a variety of styles, from simple single strand bracelets to more intricate designs. They are perfect for adding a touch of elegance to your everyday look or for a special occasion.

When choosing a pearl bracelet, consider the size of the pearls and the style of the bracelet. A single strand bracelet is perfect for everyday wear, while a multi-strand bracelet is ideal for a special occasion. You can also choose between a classic pearl bracelet or one with added embellishments, such as diamonds, other gemstones or a personalised charm.
