Pearls are one of the most timeless and classic materials used in jewelry. At Van Adams Jewelers in Snellville, GA, we offer a wide range of pearl jewelry, from elegant necklaces to sophisticated earrings. In this blog post, we'll take a closer look at pearls and why they make such a wonderful addition to any jewelry collection.

History of Pearls:

Pearls have been used in jewelry for thousands of years, dating back to ancient civilizations such as the Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians. In fact, pearls were once considered to be the ultimate symbol of wealth and social status.

In more recent times, pearls have become a popular choice for wedding and formal jewelry. The timeless elegance and natural beauty of pearls make them the perfect choice for any special occasion.

Types of Pearls:

There are several different types of pearls used in jewelry, each with its unique characteristics and beauty. The most common types of pearls used in jewelry include:

·         Akoya Pearls: These pearls are typically smaller in size and have a high luster, making them a popular choice for pearl necklaces and bracelets.

·         South Sea Pearls: These pearls are larger in size and come in a range of colors, from white to golden. They are often used in more luxurious pieces of jewelry.

·         Freshwater Pearls: These pearls come in a range of sizes and colors and are often used in more affordable jewelry pieces. They are a popular choice for pearl earrings and bracelets.

At Van Adams Jewelers, we offer a range of pearl jewelry, from classic pearl necklaces to modern and stylish pearl earrings.

Caring for Pearls:

Proper care is important in keeping your pearl jewelry looking its best. Pearls are delicate and require special attention to maintain their luster and beauty. Here are some tips for caring for your pearl jewelry:

·         Store your pearls separately from other jewelry to avoid scratching.

·         Avoid exposing your pearls to chemicals such as perfume, hairspray, or makeup.

·         Clean your pearls regularly with a soft, damp cloth.

·         Have your pearls restrung every few years to ensure their longevity.
