Everything You Need To Know About Pearl Jewelry

A pearl is a naturally occurring gemstone formed inside mollusks like oysters. It is created when an irritant, such as a grain of sand, becomes trapped inside the mollusk's shell. The mollusk then secretes layers of nacre, a shiny substance, around the irritant, gradually forming a smooth, luminescent pearl.

Because pearls can be adapted to any style, many celebs now wear them day and night. Their appeal remains consistent throughout fashion trends making them a staple piece in any jewelry collection; fashion icons like Coco Chanel, Marilyn Monroe, and Audrey Hepburn have historically worn pearls, solidifying their status as a symbol of sophistication.
