South Sea pearls come in a classic pearl white hue with a subtle silvery finish. The ones used here are plump, classically round and impressively smooth-a vision of luxury. A few factors make the pearls rare and therefore more valuable and exciting to own: First, the pearls produced are larger in size because the type of oyster they come from is also bigger. They are also only found in specific locations-mostly in Australia coming from silver-lipped oysters that are able to thrive there but in few other habitats. Last, the pearls take longer to form-about double the time as those from other oyster varieties. What are cultured pearls? Cultured pearls are real pearls from farmed mollusks. Although there are no major differences between the quality of natural and cultured pearls, cultured pearls are more consistent in size, shape and color. What do pearls symbolize?

Diamonds are said to bring the wearer great strength, protection, and clarity. Worn as protection in battle, diamonds have been embellished throughout histories & cultures. What is the history of diamonds? Diamonds have always been a sign of wealth, worn by elite classes and wealthy rulers-but in addition to being displayed as adornment and good luck charms, diamonds were also used as carving tools and even digested as medicine.
