Pearl necklaces

Pearls are a tremendously well known organic gem, often used for jewellery. Pearls were originally used around 400BC, or, at least - thats the first archaeological evidence we have.

However, their popularity has waned in recent decades. This is likely due to the range of cultured and artificial pearls now available at rock bottom prices. Has the pearl had its day?

We generally only stock cultured pearls but will do our best to keep it open and obvious.

Our current stock includes:

18 inch necklace made with cultured pearls, individually knotted to prevent them rubbing on each other. This necklace has a lobster clasp to allow for easy fastening around the neck. It does not stretch. These are really rather good quality Pearls with natural shapes, good white colour but plenty of natural looking flaws - I like these a lot more than the 'perfect' round ones.

Frequently asked questions and delivery information

How do we grade stones?

There is no overall universal grading system for the majority of our products. As such, the grades we use are internal only. They simply refer to higher and lower qualities, but they may be entirely different grades to other websites. C grade pieces are of lower quality than B grade, which is lower than A grade.

How does our ordering and delivery process work?

You place an order via the website. When it’s been picked and packed, your order will be marked as completed and dropped off at our local post office. We have an account with the post office called a “Drop and Go” account, which allows the post office staff to process our parcels when they have free time, rather than me queuing up and delaying everyone else.

I get tracking information etc online when this has been completed. I typically do not send tracking information to customers unless they request it – but if you’ve requested tracked postage, it has been sent tracked! If you have any worries or concerns about your parcel being delayed please feel free to get in touch and I’ll send the tracking info over! We also get delivery confirmations for parcels over 25MM thick by default.

How do international orders work?

After Brexit, with the UK leaving the European Union, certain things have changed with regards to international orders. European Union customers will now likely be liable to pay the same amount of import VAT as any other international customers. You will be responsible for any customs and import fees.
