Women Love Pearls

Pearls are one of the nature's best gifts to mankind and woman feel proud to wear and show it off. From time immemorial pearl has been considered as the symbol of wealth and prosperity and pearl jewelry has been associated and considered only as part of the rich and famous.

However, now pearls are within reach of the common people as well, and women are ecstatic about this. Pearls were initially found only naturally but now they are cultured and hence found in many colors also. You can have a variety of colors and shapes in pearls and can make jewelry of your choice. Natural pearls are very rarely found and hence costly.

Pearl's shape, size and color depend upon the environment in which it is grown. The shape, size and color of the pearl also define the personality of the woman wearing it. Pearl jewelry is for sophistication and graceful appearance and at the same time it is eye catching and attractive also. So a woman wearing a pearl jewelry can define herself along with its combination with her outfit and the manner in which she carries it off.

Pearls are of two types, one are freshwater pearls and the other seawater pearls. Seawater pearls are much rarer than freshwater pearls and so costlier too. You will find a lot of colors and different shapes in freshwater pearls. Pearl jewelry is considered to be a symbol of class and sophistication and at the same time considered lucky also. In ancient times people had the idea that pearl is a gift of God and so for good fortune and happy life parents used to gift pearl to their daughters. It was the sign of love, good health and prosperity.

Few things should be kept in mind before buying pearl jewelry. Pearl should have a reflecting luster and a smooth surface. Pearl should be properly cared for and stored properly after using it.
