The vast world of pearls
They can be classified into two broad categories.
- Cultured or natural pearls, mainly composed of mother-of-pearl and produced by different species of molluscs, notably oysters and mussels.
- Freshwater pearls come from freshwater mussels found in China. They often have a beautiful natural white color, but can also have purple, pink, or lavender highlights. Round or sometimes button-shaped, their affordable price makes them particularly attractive to those looking to purchase them.
- Akoya pearls, sourced from Japan, are round and of the highest quality. AAA quality Akoya pearl jewelry is a beautiful piece that commands high prices and is characterized by a prestigious style.
- Australian and South Sea pearls are the rarest and most expensive. Their exceptional luster is reminiscent of materials like silk or satin. Their colors vary: silvery white, gold, creamy white, and pale pink.
- Cultured pearls from Tahiti and the Fiji Islands are distinguished by their original colors: black, silver gray, green, blue, aubergine, etc. They can have various shapes: round, circled, baroque or irregular.
- Others, made of various natural or synthetic materials: wood, glass, metal, plastic… These are widely used to make costume jewelry .

Different types of jewelry
Delicate and elegant, pearls can enhance many pieces of jewelry while matching different types of materials.
Combined with metals like gold or silver, they make superb dangling earrings , but also drops, studs or hoops , with a classic or innovative design. If you like long and chic earrings , you will be seduced by the models adorned with small pearls and chains. These very elegant women's jewels can be matched with shiny necklaces or bracelets, adorned with stones such as diamonds or zirconium oxide.
To adopt a baroque style, you must bet on unconventional shapes like drop-shaped models accompanied by an alloy such as bronze . This style can be highlighted with the addition of other accessories like rings adorned with a cabochon-cut gemstone.
Placed on studs, they allow you to obtain small, discreet but very elegant earrings , which you can easily wear every day.
