All About Pearls

Pearls, the birthstone for June, are one of the most timeless and treasured gems- something that will be in style for years and years to come. They can add a classic feel to any look or can update an outfit with more contemporary pieces.

Miriam Haskell Two Row Cluster Pearl Silver Necklace

Pearls are interesting because they have so many colors, shapes, and origins. Round is the most prized shape in the industry, but both saltwater and freshwater pearls are produced in a variety of shapes. They can be:
• Round
• Off-Round
• Oval
• Teardrop

Semi-baroque and baroque pearls are considered off-round, and they can be very asymmetrical in shape. Our Miriam Haskell Two Row Cluster Pearl Silver Necklace features round pearls, contributing to its elegance and worth.

Thomas Sabo Sterling Pendant with Mother of Pearl

Pearls are unique because they are the only gem that comes from a living creature. Pearls start out as a grain of sand or a microscopic worm that finds its way into an oyster. As a result, the oyster produces a smooth and hard substance called nacre to protect its soft body from this irritant. Many layers of nacre coat the foreign object and eventually harden, forming the pearl. Generally, the thicker the nacre is, the richer the “glow” of the pearl. This can greatly increase its value. Our Thomas Sabo Sterling Pendant with Mother of Pearl certainly has a strong glow to it.

Miriam Haskell Cluster Pearl Gold Earrings

Throughout the ages, these luminous pieces have symbolized wisdom, wealth, purity, romance, and mystery. Emperors, Kings, and Queens have all sought to possess them, and ancient Egyptians were buried with them. In Rome, they were considered the ultimate symbol of wealth and status, and the Greeks prized them for their beauty and association with love and marriage. Part of the reason for their value is their unblemished perfection-even though they are made through a natural process! No wonder they’ve withstood the test of time! Today, pearls are even used in more contemporary pieces to create more trendy jewelry, such as in our Miriam Haskell Cluster Pearl Gold Earrings.

Men’s Cufflinks

Scott Kay Unkaged Diamond Pattern Cuff Links

When it comes to jewelry, women have necklaces, bracelets, earrings … well you get the picture. Of course men can wear these pieces of jewelry as well, however, these items aren’t traditionally part of a man’s attire. There may only be one piece of jewelry that has universally been deemed acceptable for even the manliest of men – the cufflink.

For years, gentlemen have added a touch of class to their button ups with some stylish cuff links. Like other pieces of jewelry, cufflinks don’t necessarily serve a function other than adding a sense of style to an outfit. At times, cuff links have the rare power to turn even the most unpolished man into a dapper gentleman. A man wearing cuff links demonstrates to others that he is a man of taste and refined style. He has no qualms about looking good and showing off his more sophisticated side.

Scott Kay Unkaged Round Cufflink

Cufflinks come in a wide array of materials. They can be made out of diamonds, gold, silver, stone, pearls, or just about anything. Yet their versatility doesn’t always equate to wise style additions. So while cufflinks provide a great way for men to show off some of their personality with a dress shirt, cuff links can lead to a fashion faux pas. Like any jewelry, men run the risk of purchasing too flashy cufflinks. In other words, cufflinks that are too large or have too many adornments. So to make a wise style decision, it’s recommended the men purchase less ornate cufflinks that will correlate well with their outfit, while still providing a tasteful punch of style and fashion.

King Baby Studio Day of the Dead Cufflinks

Scott Kay and King Baby Studio offer cufflink collection with some great examples of stylish cufflinks that are stylish and versatile.
