Pearl Earrings: The Present OF A Lifetime

Pearl earrings are amongst the most common type of pearl jewelry you can find around. The painting of the Girl With a Pearl Earring by Johannes Vermeer is a beautiful example of pearl jewelry. Vermeer featured pearl necklaces, earrings and bracelets in many of his paintings.

Margherita of Savoy owned one of the most famous pearl collections and is depicted wearing necklaces, a bracelet, and matching pearl earrings.

Pearl Earrings: My Little Adventure

Classic pearl studs are a part of many women’s earring wardrobe. My grandparents gave me a set for my eighteeth birthday and I still have them. Drop pearls make beautiful earrings and are often paired with other gemstones. My husband took me to a place in Florida where you could open mussels to find pearls. I did find two very small ones and they made them into earrings.

Half round pearls can be used to make the classic button earrings. With the advent of colored pearls, you can have pearl earrings and bracelets to match any outfit. Just check QVC when they have the Honora pearl shows. My goodness, they have some beautiful things and the prices are not bad on some of them.

Pearl Earrings: Now Available To All

Pearls used to be only for the very wealthy. Natural pearls are rare and a matched set would cost in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. The culturing process has made pearls available to everyone. They can be had at almost every price point, so there is no reason not to treat yourself to a set of pearl earrings or a beautiful pearl bracelet.
