Dazzling pearls for your wedding

There is nothing more beautiful than a string of lustre, dazzling pearls won around the neck of the bride as she walks down the aisle in her beautiful flowing gown. Choosing the right pearl jewelry is like the extra frosting that adds an elegant touch. These timeless classics represent feminity, purity, elegance, sophistication and luxury, which make them perfect for the BIG day.The few types of pearls are pure white or cream Akoya, Hanadama, Black Tahitian, Freshwater and South Sea which come in various shapes, sizes, colours, tones and quality. It is always good to identify your personal style and the theme of your wedding when choosing your pearl jewelry. The colour and style of your gown, the colour of your skin and hair affects your decision too.

The Akoya pearls are common classic Pearl Necklaces that are won on classic and modern weddings. They are probably the most common pearls found in white, cream-coloured and black tones. For a special class of Akoya, the Hanadama is a rare grade which echos the quality of Mikimoto pearls. The Akoya Pearl necklaces and bracelets found at Pearls Of Joy range from 6.5mm to 9.5 in AA+ and AAA grading. You should determine the neckline of your gown before choosing the right length and style of the necklace.

The 18″ Hanadama Akoya Pearl necklace is a rare beauty due to the thick and clean nacre, placing it in the luxury category of Akoya Pearls. It is beautiful on a low-moderate neckline gown slightly below the collarbones. For a complete look, take a pick from the Freshwater Pearl Bracelets to accessorize with your gown.

A nice choice for a tropical and exotic wedding would be a Tahitian Pearl necklace, known for its natural black body tone which can come in a wide range of tones, including gray, silver, green, blue and purple. I find the dark tones mysterious and subtle, perfect for the modern bride who is bold and adventurous. A necklace and earring set is the way to go for a finish look. Alternatively, take a pick from the Freshwater Pearl Bracelets to accessorize with your gown.

Pearls of Joy is not only an online store but you can learn more about how to choose the right pearl jewelry by understanding the characteristics of each type of pearl. I enjoy reading the value factors in the archive. Though I can’t afford the high end ones but it is helpful to know what is the marketprice and value of each kind. You can shop easily by either the pearl type, jewelry type, pearl colour or shop by price. Maybe there should be a page on recommendations for certain occasions, attire and personality though the pearl necklace lengths page comes close.

Here is the top of the range: the South Sea pearls which are the rarest and most valued pearls produced in the world, distinguished by their large size and are in fact the largest cultured pearls available.

And actually, it doesn’t have to be worn only on a wedding day, this is stunning on any special occasion… believe me, you can’t be missed with this one. And you definitely need to complete the look with a pair of round and radiant Golden South Sea earrings.
