~The ancient greeks held the belief that pearls were the tears of joy of Aphrodite, the goddess of love. They also believed that wearing pearls would prevent women from crying on their wedding day.

In hindu folklore Krishna plucked the first pearl from the depths of the ocean and gave it to his daughter Pandaia on her wedding day as a symbol of love, union, and purity. ~

~ Pearls symbolise wisdom. They are believed to attract wealth and luck as well as offer protection. ~

~ Caring For Your Pearls ~

Pearls are soft compared to most semi precious gemstones and are organic in nature.

They tarnish easily dulling the lustre and brilliance of the pearl.

Follow these special care instructions to make sure they remain bright and beautiful for many years to come.

* Always put your pearls on last after applying makeup and perfume

*Acids in body oils and perspiration can damage lustre so remove before exercise.

*Remove before cleaning as chemicals will damage the surface.

*Store in a lined box away from other jewellery to avoid scratching the surface of your pearls.
