The Perfect Setting: Pearl Season
By Amy Certilman
Long or short, white or black, traditional or modern, pearls are as fashionable and fun as the women who wear them.
Unlike a diamond – which requires an expert cutter to bring out its brilliance – a pearl is a ready-made gift from nature. Years ago, perfectly round Akoya pearls, with their blemish free surface and shiny luster and shape, were the standard. While Akoya pearls remain magnificent, cultured South Sea and Tahitian, and even baroque Freshwater Pearls, are now highly sought after by jewelry designers and women who want fine jewelry with a bit of personality.
Choosing to add pearls to your jewelry collection this season is a terrific choice, and will take you from day to evening, jeans to black-tie.
