Chasing the best black pearl earring.

A good friend of mine and regular customer for 16 years, bought a beautiful set of very expensive Black Salt Water pearls in about 10 mm. They were sold with backs that, being gold, were as costly as the actual earring and weighed more than the pearls. As this was an expensive gift from her husband I complimented her on the earrings but I did not like what I saw. The earrings were actually just drooping off her ear looking like they were about to drop off completely. The backs were weighing the lobes down but she blamed her sagging lobes. I however, blamed the backings.

I offered her a Julleen lobe lift to try on. Immediately the droop was altered. I also showed her the set of black pearl studs (seen below) in 11 mm. Voila instant love! A stunning new black earring with the set of lobe lifts and the look was spectacular! She left here a happy girl, with quality black Julleen earrings sitting up high on the lobe and not looking as though she were about to lose them any second.

The point is – Freshwater pearls to me, definitely have more substance and more value than the salt water variety. It was good to have helped a good friend and just wonderful to get to see the results of the products I love and sell.
