The Beauty Of Pearls For Weddings

Our new Audrey Single Pearl Necklace has been featured on the front cover of this month’s Perfect Wedding Magazine with a gorgeous Sophia Tolli wedding dress with a stunning sweetheart neckline which compliments this elegant style.
The Audrey Single Pearl Necklace features one large freshwater pearl, two Swarovski crystals, one of which can be changed to any of the 36 colours in our colour chart to co-ordinate with your wedding look. The crystal pictured here is 'Lt Azore' which can be your something blue.

This necklace is also a perfect gift for bridesmaids and Mother of the Bride or Groom as the classic design suits all ages and the touch of colour gives it a personalised touch.
Pearls have such a luminescent style which is so flattering, and they form the basis of so many of our designs. Our Audrey Collection is based entirely on the beauty of pearls. They create such a timeless look.







The pearls that we use in our wedding jewellery are ivory freshwater pearls as these suit all ages and skin tones and compliment the ivory tones of both vintage and modern wedding dresses.
The tradition of wearing pearls on your wedding day has long been popular. It was once believed the pearls would promote marital harmony as pearls symbolize love, success, happiness, and modesty.
Pearls were also at the height of wedding fashion for royal weddings in days gone by. Everyone from the bride to her male guests wore pearls as part of their wedding day attire, and the tradition of wearing pearls on the wedding day has continued over the years. The height of this wedding tradition occurred during the Victorian Era where pearls were often a gift to the bride.







This tradition does not however as is often thought, require that the strand of pearls be passed from one generation to the next. Quite often brides choose to wear pearls, but prefer to wear a more contemporary style than a piece that their Mother or Grandmother wore. With this in mind we designed our Audrey Collection. New additions to this collection include our The Audrey Single Pearl Necklace as shown above and the Audrey Mixed Pearl Necklace.

The Audrey Mixed Pearl Necklace is a classic look with a contemporary twist, a traditional pearl necklace made with a variety of freshwater pearls of different shapes and sizes. Bringing a touch of style to your wedding day look this necklace also compliments many other outfits and can be worn again after your wedding day.
