The environment in which pearls are grown affects their quality. A pearl’s grade depends upon its luster, shape, and surface appearance. Luster refers to the reflection of light through the outer layers of the pearl. Larger pearls have more layers, and so have greater luster. High luster receives a higher grade than low luster.
Round pearls are the most difficult to grow, and thus are considered more valuable and receive a higher grade than those that are off-round. Although the classic pearl shape is round, fashion pearl jewelry often features unique pearl shapes that are just as beautiful and captivating as round pearls.
The pearl surface is graded according to the numbers and kinds of imperfections on the pearl. A pearl’s blemish may appear as a bubble, a line, or a dark spot. Ninety-five percent of the surface of an AAA pearl is free from defects.
When you’re shopping for pearl jewelry, keep in mind how pearls are grown and graded, but make your own decision about the qualities are important to you.
When Charles, Prince of Wales decided to seek the hand of Lady Diana, diamond was not even in the running.

The pearl industry has been perfecting the spherically shaped pearls and takes precaution to ensure the natural pearl making process is completed. They do this by using x-rays to determine if the nucleus of the oysters is still inside or not. If not, they will place another nucleus or bead inside for completion of the pearl-making process.
Keshi pearls are used more for avant-garde jewelry than for the classic pearl strands that we see today. They can also be made into beautiful bracelets and chandelier earrings. Unlike round-shaped pearls, Keshi pearls give a more modern look to jewelry and have a more flexible use. They can also be incorporated into rings, brooches, pendants and even beautiful tiaras. Keshi pearls have become the choice pearls for this modern age.
When buying discount pearl jewelry you don’t have to compromise on quality as pearl jewelry comes in various price ranges. Some pearl jewelry stores hype their quality as AAAA quality pearls to jack up prices, where in fact, you may be getting A or AA quality pearls. There is no such AAAA quality grading set by any of the pearl jewelry industry either in US and abroad or by any laboratory or any institutions around the globe. It is simply false and it is a red flag.
First of all it is best to understand the type of pearls and the quality. Most of us perhaps already know that when it comes diamonds, Four C’s – Cut, Color, Clarity and Carat are determining factors for the value of any diamond. Then how about pearls?

Despite winning an Oscar for her original screenplay, Sofia Coppola does not give the substance I expect. Hollywood pours out awards for her effort, and to me it only reflects why Hollywood is called Tinseltown, all show, confusion and stress without real substance.
Ultimately, both characters are seeking meaning in their lives.
One viewer wrote this about the film, “Overall the film is just perfect. The acting, the direction, the soundtrack, plot, themes, humor, visuals . . . what’s not to like?”
What’s not to like is this: People who seek true love seldom find it. People who seek the perfect mate never find the perfect mate. People who seek to find the true meaning of life seldom find it.
The reason is simple: you do not bring meaning to your life by seeking meaning in your life, you bring meaning to your life by giving meaning to your life. Life does not come to you, you come to life, or you become an unhappy, dissatisfied person.
When we blame others we give up our ability to change.
Lost in Translation has some great scenes of Tokyo, but like pictures in a photo album, they only reflect the meaning you bring to them.

Bold or Understated, the choice is yours: Big, bold dramatic pieces as a fashion focal point are the statement of the season. The peasant styles of the 70’s, as well as the dynamic, two-toned geometrics of the 60’s are playing nicely this Fall. Black and White (or silver and black) are hot properties. For the understated look, consider smaller crystals with lightweight metallics, pewter or graphite toned, for a great daytime/office look.
Fashion jewelry this fall is full of possibilities for once in a long time. It can be almost anything that you make of it. These 5 tips are a great starting point to put your jewelry wardrobe in high style. With layering continuing to be a trend, consider coupling a few more understated necklaces at various lengths with one larger, “chunky” bracelet, to create a wardrobe worth
The law requires metal to be marked by the maker and the metal quality. For sterling, the mark will be either the numbers 925 (meaning 92.5 % silver, which is sterling) or a “sterling” stamp with the words. Near the clasp should have the mark, it would be at the end of the chain if anything. Sometimes the mark is on a little flat looking ring at the end of the chain, so check around.

Alexandrite. A yellowish or brownish green in color, this gemstone has the unique characteristic of changing color to a red hue when exposed to a glowing light source, such as candlelight. Because of this quality, it has been characterized by poets as “an emerald by day, a ruby by night.”

The law requires metal to be marked by the maker and the metal quality. For sterling, the mark will be either the numbers 925 (meaning 92.5 % silver, which is sterling) or a “sterling” stamp with the words. Near the clasp should have the mark, it would be at the end of the chain if anything. Sometimes the mark is on a little flat looking ring at the end of the chain, so check around.
Sterling silver will tarnish and on some people it tarnishes quickly due to body chemistry, but on others it may never tarnish. To keep tarnish from happening, sterling is very often plated with another metal to protect the sterling and keep the tarnish from happening. The plating will be a metal called “rhodium” which is very bright or another metal recently used on silver that looks more the color of silver. However, the chain can be sterling and still have the plate on the outside to prevent tarnish.
Other than that, the only real way to tell if something is sterling silver is to test it. For example, like an acid test done by a jeweler. Generally a test will cost some money, not a lot, but maybe not worth it, depending on what you paid for the chain. On a large heavy chain, the test might be worth it, but that’s all up to you.
I suggest thinking about where you got the chain from and whether or not you got it from an established business. An established business would serve little purpose in selling anything fake for sterling silver. Always look for both a sterling marks and a stamp or symbol for the manufacture as I said before. Both of those marks should be there.

Unlike other gems like diamond or precious stones, which are cut, shaped and polished to bring brilliance, pearls come out of living organism and have natural lustrous appeal. Pearls are unique and known for their the natural beauty. Pearls are formed inside the body of oysters. The mollusk deposits layer of nacre, a combination of crystalline and organic substances, when any irritant or parasite enters or placed inside its body. Over a period of time with nacre building up in layers upon layers, the pearl is formed.
Buying diamond jewelry is often intimidating as one is never sure about its real value. Ordinary person can’t possibly comprehend the evaluation process of ascertaining the quality and price of diamonds; as cut, shape, size, color and design settings are very crucial. But for pearls, with little efforts and knowledge, one can easily figure out the quality and price variations and can decide accordingly. The size, color, shape, surface and the type of pearl usually define the price in any kind of pearl jewelry.

The pearl’s nacre surface is fragile and to maintain its beauty and value, it is a must to observe the following as guide in looking after pearls.
Pearls are sensitive not only to harsh chemicals but should also be kept away from perfume, hair spray, hand and body lotion. Put your pearl jewelry on only after putting on makeup and spraying perfume on. Do not apply cream on the skin where the pearls will be in direct contact. The basic rule here is that the pearl should not be in contact with any chemical.
To clean, wipe the pearls with soft, lint-free cloth. Dampen the cloth with water to take off any hard-to-remove dirt.The pearls should be clean and dry before putting them away.Store the pearls separately, preferably in pouches of smooth cloth or in their original containers or boxes to make sure the surfaces are not scratched.
Check the strands after every use for signs of wear or have them restrung periodically depending on how often they are used. Have knots placed between pearls in a strand to keep them from scratching each surface they come into contact with and to prevent most or all the pearls from falling off a broken strand.Heat causes discoloration of pearls so avoid this where possible
Looking after pearls is like preserving nature. Looking after pearls is like giving tender loving care consistently. The reward is that you have something of beauty and value to pass on to the next generation.
