One of my current favorite things to work with is none other than the simple, elegant freshwater pearl. Why? A lot of reasons...
They are exceedingly useful - want a look that has a elevated feel but isn't sparkly? Pop on a pair of pearl huggie hoops.
Need the perfect necklace to accent an all-black ensemble (looking at you, music friends!)? Add a pearl necklace.
They are charming, luminous, and come in a variety of shapes and styles. They are said to enhance love, luck, health, protection, and even honesty. Traditionally, pearls have symbolized purity, though that is a meaning that more recent generations are not promoting.
I find great joy creating jewelry with freshwater pearls, and I hope that translates to you when you see and wear your Jasper & Elm pearls!
