Need A Gift? Think Pearls

What better way to commemorate the special times in our lives than with the gift of pearls. Pearls have been honored and revered through out history and are possible the oldest symbol of wealth and prosperity. Dating back to the Roman Empire, pearls were said to be worth their weigh in gold. Unlike the gemstones mined from the earth, pearls are the only gemstone formed from live animals. Contrary to popular belief, pearls usually do not form as a result of sand trapped in the oysters shell. Most often a piece of food material becomes trapped within the tissue of the oyster. Secretions then encapsulate the foreign material and the pearl is formed.
Through out the ages pearls have been worn by nobility and the working class as well. During the 1700s and early 1800s seed pearls became popular and were strung on silk. The result was a piece so delicate and elegant that the pearl became known as a symbol of purity and gentility. In fact, an 1870 newspaper article stated that pearls were "exquisitely beautiful and constitute an appropriate and elegant present to a young bride."
Pearls have become family heirlooms as a result of their luster and beauty. Most of us are familiar with the saltwater or marine pearl but many are unfamiliar with the freshwater pearls. Freshwater pearls grow in mussels which live in lakes, rivers and streams. In fact, pearls can be cultivated and are produced in countries around the world.
Due to their versatility, pearls can be worn with just about any outfit from a formal gown to jeans. Pearls are commonly found strung in necklaces and bracelets, mounted in rings, pendants, pins and brooches. If the uniform elegance of the marine pearl is not your style, maybe the unique shape and color of the cultured freshwater pearl are more your style. Pearls can range from white to gold, or purple to black. Pearls also come in a wide variety of shapes. Ranging from round to the truly unique baroque there is a variety to meet every need, occasion and individuals taste.
Pearls are extremely durable but do need some basic care. First, if you wear your pearls regularly have them restrung at least once a year and request that they be knotted between each pearl. After each wearing lightly, wipe your pearls with a soft cloth. This will remove the oil from the pearls which can affect their luster. Also, keep your pearls away from chemicals such as hair spray, makeup or perfume. It’s also a good idea to store your pearls in a separate compartment of your jewelry box or in a soft bag to prevent chipping.
If you are looking for the perfect gift for the graduate, bride or special someone, pearls will be loved and adored for years to come. If you want to give a gift that can be passed on from generation to generation, pearls are the right choice. From the classic elegance of the pearly white strand of pearls to the unique stylish flair of colored Biwa pearls, you can’t go wrong with a gift of pearls.

Share In The Excitement At Lady Lynn’s Boutique

This is one of my favorite times of the year! Soon I will be departing on one of my buying trips and the excitement is palatable. I have arranged to meet with several of my international suppliers and I understand that this year’s collection is nothing less than spectacular! I can’t wait to get my hands on the handcrafted sterling silver gemstone jewelry from some of the most exotic locations on earth.

In addition to my gorgeous line of gemstone pendants, rings, earrings, bracelets and necklaces, I plan to increase my sterling sliver line, adding some unique designs of pendants, earrings, rings, necklaces and bracelets. I have also requested matched jewelry sets with a “twist”. While a matched set does not have to be identical, each piece should enhance the other, bringing out the beauty of the stone it is complimenting.

I am so excited about the opportunity to travel and I wish I could take each and every one of your with me. Well, wait, maybe I can. If you have been looking for that special piece, drop me an email and I will try to locate it for you. Do you need a certain color, stone, or style to complete an outfit? Let me help you impress your friends and family with an unbelievable addition to your jewelry wardrobe. Be a part of the excitement here at Lady Lynn’s Boutique and let me help you breath life into your favorite outfit. Send me an email expressing what you are looking for and allow me to suggest some fantastic combinations that will amaze you. Also stay tuned for the announcement of the arrival of our Fall 2008 collection.

How to Choose the Right Earrings

Well chosen earrings can dangle to match your playful personality or convey authority.
Choose a style of earring to flatter your face or draw attention away from problem areas.

FACE: Consider the shape of your face. They eye is drawn to the point at which the earring ends. To focus attention to your face, wear your earrings no longer than your jaw line. If you need to draw attention away from your jaw line, select earrings that are a bit shorter.

EYES: If you are is a stage of life that you need to draw attention away from eyes that are beginning to age, select earrings that are on French Wires that do not sit on the ear lobe.

NOSE: Choose earrings that are the opposite shape of your nose. If you have a long slender nose, select rounded styles. If you have a round nose, select dangle earrings. Bear no resemblance to the shape of your nose.

NECK: The longer your neck the greater the range of your earring length is.

Troubleshooting:

The most common problem is earrings that droop and do not sit upright on your ear lobe. The solution is to buy round plastic disks that sit against the back of your ear between your ear lobe and the earring back. You can easily find these in most department & drug stores. Keep a pair on hand. You may run across a pair of earring the droop at bit due to the weight of the earring.
