Black Pearls - PotW 29/10/12!

There is a definite Gothic trend happening in A/W 2012 and since it's Halloween today as well, we're featuring black pearls this week!

Black pearls actually come in a wide range of different hues and colours - from dark blue and green to peacock and even sometimes having lots of different hues!
We absolutely love them and think that they make a stunning addition to any jewellery box! If you love pearls but are looking for something a bit different than the norm, these are definitely the way to go!

Natalie Portman is also a big fan of black pearls, having been seen wearing them for both dressy and casual occasions!




Whether it's earrings, a necklace or a ring you're after, The Diamond Studio are here to help you with all your pearl needs! Whilst we might not have a lot of black pearls on our website just now, many of the pearl pieces we do feature are available in black - just give us a phone, drop us an email or come in and see us if you are looking for something particular and we will do our very best to source it for you!

Product of the week 18/6 - Pearls!

Since we are still in the lovely month of June (and it's actually starting to feel like it, weather-wise!) what better product to have as our Product of the Week than exquisite pearls?

Pearls are the birthstone for June, so if anyone special has a birthday coming up, they would make a perfect gift! Though even if their birthday isn't in June, everyone deserves to have pearls of their own.

As everyone knows, pearls are produced by oysters and other similar molluscs. What you might not know is that they are a minute cristalline form of Calcium Carbonate - CaCO3 for any sciency types out there. But although they share their chemical formula with chalk, they are certainly nothing like it!

Known as the "Queen of Gems", the Pearl has a history which goes back centuries, we have had a fixation with them for quite some time! Natural pearls were treasured by both the Egyptians and the Romans, and pearls also feature in several religious texts, so they are truly highly valued.

In 1917, after collecting them for years, Pierre Cartier sold a double strand of natural pearls in exchange for a mansion on Fifth Avenue, New York - now the Cartier store. At the time, they were valued at $1m!

Natural pearls are therefore obviously pretty hard to come by these days, and would be extremely expensive to acquire any way! However, the process of producing 'cultured pearls' was perfected in 1916 by Japanese researchers. This process has made pearls far more accessible to those of us who aren't royalty or very rich!

Here at The Diamond Studio, we stock Jersey Pearl, a stunning collection featuring lots of different styles, so you will definitely find something to your liking!

Come in and see us, or you can always arrange a private appointment if you would prefer!
