June Birthstone: 11 Glorious pearl jewellery pieces to covet this month
updated the Wednesday, June 1, 2016
Uncommon and highly sought after, natural pearls exude the ultimate aura of purity and elegance.
Much like rare opals, natural pearls are highly coveted jewellery components and can be very hard to find. From black pearls to white pearls, there is no doubt that there exists a wide variety of the gem. And yes, while pearls are considered a “gemstone” by some, they are unique because they are not mined from the depths of the earth like precious emeralds or diamonds – they are created in the sea.
Pearls are quite special because they do not require any special polishing or cutting to optimize their iridescent and lustrous beauty. In many cultures, pearls symbolise wisdom and are said to attract luck and wealth. They are said to promote balance, purity and loyalty in the wearer.
Are you looking to give someone born in June a gift they will remember forever? Thinking of treating yourself to a special and valuable piece to add to your collection? Head up to the gallery above and check out 11 of our favorite pearl jewellery pieces, curated just for you.
