Interesting Facts About Pearl Earrings.....

Associated with the month of June, there is a lot of romance linked to pearls. Early Chinese myths said that pearls fell from the sky when dragons fought as they were the tears of the Gods. Another ancient legend tells of how a mermaid lost her love and cried tears of pearls.

Cultured or freshwater pearls are meant to bring luck and are thought to give wisdom. Combined with the diamond, which is the ultimate symbol of love, strength and power, diamond and pearl earrings offer a heady mix of traditions.

Pearls come in various shapes and sizes with natural round pearls being the rarest and most expensive. They can vary in colour from white to some hints of pink to brown or black, and this can be affected by the type of mollusc and water the pearl comes from. The main natural oyster beds can be found in the Persian Gulf, Red Sea and the coasts of India and Sri Lanka, while Polynesia and Australia produce mainly cultured pearls.
