The Honora Pearl Jewelry is very lovely. It is a fresh water pearl. The pearl is the gemstone of June. It is the gem of wisdom. Pearls come in many beautiful colors; white, pink, cream, black, and golden.
The pearl is an organic gem. It is made when a little piece of sand or any foreign irritant gets into an oyster’s shell. It is a natural defense to an irritant. The mollusk then secrets nacre, which is thin layers of calcium carbonate in an attempt to cover the object. The continual layering of nacre will almost always make a misshapen pearl.
A cultured pearl is formed in almost the same way; only man supplies the irritant instead of nature. They use a mother of pearl shell, which they insert into the animal. A pearl will take from 2 to 6 years to grow. The farmer must keep a watchful eye on the pearls.
The ancient people once thought of pearls as tears of the Gods.
In 1920 they were used as a nuptial gem when getting married. Pearls stand for wisdom, purity and femininity.
Pearls are a 3.0- 4.0 on the MAHS hardness scale for gems. This means that they are relatively soft compared to other gems.
If you are celebrating a wedding anniversary, pearls are the gems for the eight-year anniversary. A very romantic idea for an anniversary is to go to Hawaii and let your sweetheart pick out her own shell and see what pearl is inside. We did this for one anniversary and I got a beautiful cream pearl, which my husband had made into a necklace for me.
Honora pearls are good quality and they supply the very best freshwater pearls. Honora has over 60 years of experience in cultured pearls. When picking a cultured pearl you should consider these six qualities: size, roundness, cleanliness, nacre thickness, luster, and color.
