Heirloom or Classic Pearls

eirloom pearls or “your grandmother’s pearls” were lovely in past years and they’re still lovely. Natural pearls were affordable only by the rich until the advent of cultured pearls, but today good pearl jewelry is within the reach of most people. With care, these pearls will last your lifetime and that of your children, and they will never go out of style. Indeed, they become more beautiful with frequent wearing.

Heirloom pearls are traditionally worn by brides, and the strand of pearls she wears is a perfect wedding gift from her groom. How delightful for a bride to hand down not only her bridal gown, but also the pearls she wore to her daughter for her own wedding day!
