Allura 9-9.5mm Cultured South Sea Pearl and Diamond Hoop Earrings in 14k White Gold

The only thing that make pearls better is a dusting of diamonds. These huggie hoop earrings dazzle with pavé diamonds at the front half and along the miniature hoop that links the base and the lavish South Sea white pearl.  

What is the history of South Sea pearls and where are they found? 

South Sea pearls come in a classic pearl white hue with a subtle silvery finish. The ones used here are plump, classically round and impressively smooth—a vision of luxury.  A few factors make the pearls rare and therefore more valuable and exciting to own: First, the pearls produced are larger in size because the type of oyster they come from is also bigger. They are also only found in specific locations—mostly in Australia coming from silver-lipped oysters that are able to thrive there but in few other habitats. Last, the pearls take longer to form—about double the time as those from other oyster varieties.  

What are cultured pearls? 

Cultured pearls are real pearls from farmed mollusks. Although there are no major differences between the quality of natural and cultured pearls, cultured pearls are more consistent in size, shape and color. 

What do pearls symbolize? 

Commonly white and round as seen on these beautiful earrings, pearls are known for their unique luster. They are powerful gemstones that promote perseverance, grace and serenity.  

Where should I wear these earrings? 

These fancy, fashionable earrings providing a gorgeous finish to cocktail dresses and gowns. A combination of a hoop and a drop, the gemstone earrings look great on brides, mother-of-the-bridesand wedding guests. Complement the white gold base, creamy, lustrous pearl and clear diamonds with a muted-colored dress.
