And as the birthstone for June, the classic pearl never goes wrong. Trends may fluctuate, but pearls and their appeal will always stay in vogue.
Clutch your pearls
Synonymous to icons and royalty, they are opulent and eclectic – but always luxurious with a unique charm. From as long ago as 2300 BC, pearls were presented as royal gifts and seen as the ultimate status symbol. In 1BC, Julius Caesar passed a law limiting pearls only to the ruling class.
With an abundance of pearls readily available from the Persian Gulf, Arabs believed pearls were the tears of Gods while the ancient Greeks believed they were the tears of Aphrodite. The Pearly Gates refer to heaven’s gates with Hindi god Krishna bestowing pearls to his wife for their wedding. In Ancient China, pearls were a symbol of purity, while knights during the Crusades wore them into battle as amulets of protection.
The passion for pearls launched Spanish armadas to the Mexican gulf and the British to Australia. They are nature’s greatest miracles: starting out as an irritant – such as a particle of shell or parasite – to the oyster, the pearl’s formation comes from the oyster secreting nacre to build up and form the famous moon white gemstone. With cultured pearls, freshwater pearls, lucite and glass coming onboard as modern additions to pearl fashion across the last century, pearls always retain their relevance.

The silent uniform for strong women and the aristocratic badge of fashion-forward men, these gemstones effortlessly stand between tradition and evolution. As the pinnacle of feminine power, the pearl is the protector, attracting good luck and wealth.
Timeless yet modern, reclaim pearls for their moment in the sun. Because we should always be two things: classy and fabulous. The world is your oyster, and you are the pearl: so be the pearl, the queen of gems and the gem of all queens.
Pearls are all about attitude and how you pair them.
