Golden pearls are some of the rarest, most luxurious South Sea pearls you will find. They are also some of the largest such gems. While they come together with relatively high price tags, golden pearls are imbued with their own mythology and mysticism. In ancient China, golden pearls were a symbol of wealth and were said to pass the same prosperity onto the wearer.

If you are looking for a sophisticated golden pearl pendant<\/a> or a golden pearl bracelet, you have to keep in mind that golden pearls also feature several undertones. The most impressive are Natural Yellow Gold, Green\/Bronze, Rose, Orange, and Champagne.<\/p>\n

STYLING<\/strong>: Given their regal, warm tone, you will find golden pearls mixed with yellow gold. They don\u2019t usually pair well with silver or white gold metals because they the two shades can clash against each other.

According to some romantic views on pearls, the wearers of blue colored pearl jewelry are meant to find true love and keep it forever. Blue pearls are extremely rare and extremely valuable. You can find blue Akoya pearls (small in size – 7.5-9.5 mm) or silver blue South Sea pearls (large in size – 9-16 mm or larger). However, the most popular among them all are Tahitian blue pearls, with a medium size ranging between 8 and14 mm.<\/p>\n

When we think about Tahitian pearls we usually associate them with black pearls. However, natural blue pearls can feature a handful of unusual and amazing hues and overtones: Aquamarine, Strong Blue, Violet or Rose. Tahitian pearls especially come in blue tones mixed with Green, Cerulean, Violet or Teal hues and overtones. The beauty of these pearls is also given by their shimmer that changes depending on how light touches their surface, changing their metallic hues and making any woman look like a true goddess bearing an ocean rainbow around her neck.<\/p>\n

STYLING<\/strong>: More often than not you will find blue pearls incorporated into multicolor Tahitian pearl necklaces.<\/a> They are bold, beautiful and truly unique. They can accompany a woman to the office in the morning and at a gala later in the evening without overwhelming the outfit. However, if you want to make the best out of their metallic shimmer and their rainbow-like feature it is best to wear them as single statement pieces and use your skin as the perfect backdrop for them to shine.<\/p>\n
