How do pearls make you feel when you see them and hold them?


This is an interesting question and one I wonder a lot about.

It’s true, of course, that I have no way of knowing how you might feel about them. All jewellery and particularly pearls, is a very personal thing.

For example, some people like very bold and statement-oriented pearls. Others prefer much smaller and more discreet examples. Then there are those who like to have different pearls for different occasions or simply to reflect their changing moods from one day to another.

All these are perfectly valid sentiments and reasons and others can be added to the list. A good illustration is the ability of pearls to communicate to others that you’re a person of taste, refinement and some financial standing. Pearls have been used for that purpose for thousands of years.

Do Men Wear Pearl Jewellery?

Image
The answer is a resounding ‘yes’ but let’s look a little at the history. Earlier centuries If you look at male portraits of the 14th-17th centuries, you’ll often see men wearing elaborate jewellery. This continues for much longer, well into the 20th in non-European societies such as those in North Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. The men concerned are, of course, almost exclusively royalty or nobility though sometimes also of the rich merchant classes. If you look, you’ll see pearls play a massively prominent part in the masculine jewellery of the time. This includes items such as earrings, brooches, necklaces (none of which were considered exclusively feminine at the time) and rings. In many portraits, the men are as festooned as the women or even more so. The 18th century In Europe and North America, for reasons that aren’t clear, male use of jewellery in general (not just pearls) starts to decline in the later 17th and18th centuries. It may have ...

What is it That is Special About Pearls When You Look at Them?

I’m sure you wouldn’t want us to start telling you what it is that you find so attractive in pearls! You probably know that yourself. However, what I would like to do is to spend a few minutes talking about one aspect of this wonderful bounty of nature – and that’s its luminescence. We all often speak of a pearl’s lustre and its luminescence. Strictly speaking, this is incorrect. If you think back to those science lessons at school, “luminescence” is defined as the light-emitting qualities of an object. That is, something that emits light or shines other than via heat. So, some old watch hands glow in the dark because they were painted with a radioactive substance. That’s luminescence, as is the light emitted by some sorts of animals when created by chemical reactions in their bodies. You’ll probably be pleased to know that pearls are not radioactive! Yet even so, they seem to glow when looked at. What’s causing that? The scientists tell us that it’s som...

How do I look at the colour of the pearl to see the best colour?

Image
Pearl colour is usually defined as consisting of two components: the body colour   the overtone. Strictly speaking, to this should sometimes be added a third man-made attribute – the dye (or irradiation)! The dye / irradiation Let’s deal with this one first. To begin with, virtually all “black pearls” you see for sale will be dyed. Only pearls from “Pinctada Margaritifera” (the Black Lip Oyster) are naturally black and they’re rare. Rarity, of course, equates to price. No freshwater pearls are ever naturally black. So, if you see cheap black pearls or freshwater pearls that are black, then you know that their colour is almost certainly artificial. A complication here arises because not all dying is done for a radical effect. Sometimes it’s done to make the peals whiter, creamier or more golden etc. Purists would argue that no pearl should ever be dyed and on the whole, the less a pearl has been “tweaked” to make it look better, the higher its val...
