Pearls...the new diamonds??

Everywhere you look right now, lovely white pearl necklaces are making a comeback. Every celebrity worth their weight in fashion stylist gold is flaunting their own version of this classic jewellery wardrobe staple. I have to admit when I first began designing jewellery, I was not fond of the pearl....but I have since grown to absolutely adore it. It is the ultimate chic statement, tres Paris!

Maybe its the recent film 'Coco Before Chanel' starring the gorgeous Audrey Tautou, but the pearl is definitely back, in a big way. I say 'welcome back' to the old faithful, it's about time jewellery takes a more defined path again. Today there is simply far too much machine churned commercial jewellery available to the masses. There was a time when a woman's jewellery was the final and most important addition to her daily wardrobe, it showed refinement and class.

Whatever one's opinion of a strand of pearls, it cannot be denied just how elegant they are. Even Michelle Obama is getting in on the action! At Bohemian Butterfly we simply cannot refrain from using colourful gemstones in our pieces...after all, it's what we're known for. Below is one of our many beautiful white pearl necklaces, but with a twist...scattered amongst the glossy white are juicy faceted Amethyst gems....delightful, at least we like to think so.

As always we hope you enjoy browsing our collection. Please do let us know if you require any assistance or further information.
