It is a fact that pearls actually give the wearer a since of well being and it naturally increases their beauty.  Pearls have long been associated with mythical powers – including the ability to bestow health and long life.  Our pearl pendants are designed to give sophistication and style to all women of all ages.  These tropical designs are reflections of the tranquil bliss of the islands.  The Aloha Pearls designs depict flowers, such as plumerias (Pua Lani) or “Heavenly Flower” which represents the true spirit of love and Aloha.  High quality pearls hang from these lovely pendants of yellow gold, rose gold, white gold and sterling silver.

From our experience with pearl selling, ladies are more apt to buy a pendant rather than a strand of pearls.  Pendants can be less formal and easy to wear.  Sometimes a little says a lot.  Just a single elegant pearl pendant can give off a powerful yet subtle energy that defines a certain mood.  There is a strikingly beautiful “S” shape diamond pendant that caresses a south sea golden and Tahitian chocolate pearl.  The pearls are 11.4 mm in size; this double-pearl pendant is rich in appearance and with the many diamonds that are incrusted in the setting will make any lady proud to wear this piece.  A night out on the town, a Broadway play, or an art gallery opening, may call for a special pendant for the aristocratic lady.  We feature a 16 mm south sea golden pearl set in a 14 k gold pendant that surrounds the pearl in diamonds, this fiery gem would be most appropriate for high-level occasions.  A fancy tropical pendant with pearl, would be our golden dolphin pendant.  The golden sea creature is jumping through a wreath of plumeria flowers that has a 12 mm chocolate Tahitian pearl dangling from the lei.  The crafted dolphin has a clear sparkling diamond for an eye.

Tahitian chocolate cultured pearls look even more fantastic when set in rose gold pendants.  There is such a pendant made into a cluster of flowers that that slightly covers an 11 mm Tahitian chocolate cultured pearl. Another stunning rose gold pendant is the pearl pineapple.  The body of the pineapple is a silvery south sea cultured pearl and the crown is the rose gold pendant itself.  Simply smashing, to say the least.

Many of the pendants are lit with clear and sparkling diamonds.  To wear such pendants is to declare your love of the islands and the people who make these islands the paradise that it is.

A pearl diamond earring is a classy gift that contains two different elements: the flash of the diamond and the quiet beauty of the pearl. This contrasting combination has been a very popular choice for jewelry and while it has been used for many years, each time, it is still a knockout.


If you’re planning to buy pearl and diamond earrings either as a gift or as part of your jewelry collection, then you’ve made a great choice. This combination is not only valuable, it also has lasting beauty and elegance.


Know your pearls

If the pearl is the more dominant gem in your earrings, then be sure to pick a good quality one. Even if the diamond/s in your earrings is high quality, a bad pearl can ruin the whole look of your jewelry. Here are a few tips and info on pearls:


The pearl is the only gem that is produced by a live organism, namely mollusks and oysters. They are formed each time a foreign particle, like a grain of sand, enters the shell. The mollusk or oyster then reacts by treating it as an irritation and proceeds to coat it with nacre, a crystalline substance. It is the same substance that we find in the interior of the shell when we open it.


The foreign particle is continuously coated with layers upon layers of nacre until it grows in size. In the end, this foreign particle with the layers of nacre becomes a pearl. Natural pearls are formed this way and are more often shaped irregularly.


Cultured pearls are in no way inferior to natural pearls. They are still real pearls, except that their production involved a deliberate implanting of a foreign substance to stimulate a mollusk.


The value of a pearl depends on its quality: the size, shape, color, thickness of the nacre, luster and texture. Since pearls are naturally occurring gems and no two are alike, these factors can vary greatly.


Choosing your diamonds

There are four Cs to note when choosing a diamond. These are good to note especially if it is the more dominant or focal gem in your earring.


Cut involves two things: the shape of the diamond and the quality of the cut. Three of the most common are the brilliant cut, the princess cut and the emerald cut. The cut of the diamond will determine how brilliant its shine is and the more the cut brings out this quality, the higher the price. Of the three, the emerald cut is the most affordable.


Color since diamonds are a natural substance, they are not always crystal clear. They come in different colors yellow, pink and red, with the last two the more expensive.


Clarity refers to the number of imperfections found in your diamond. Imperfections or inclusions affect the way light is reflected by the stone, so the clearer the gem, the more expensive it is.


Carat refers to the size of the diamond with one carat equal to about 200 mgs. An honest diamond seller will have jewelry marked with ‘ct’ for carat or ‘ctw/tcw’ for total carat weight. When buying earrings with diamonds, look for the tcw. Earrings are bought in pairs and so they should have two diamonds of equal size.


How to care for your pearl and diamond earrings

Pearls and diamonds may look good together as components of an earring, but their contrasting characteristics can actually affect their care. Pearls are softer gems because they are organic while diamonds are the hardest gemstones in the world. Pearls can get easily scratched or damaged if you are not careful about their storage so the best thing to do is, tailor your care on the weaker gem which is the pearl.


It’s not a good idea to store pearls with other hard jewelry. To keep your jewelry in good shape, try to store them in the box they were bought in. Each earring will have a separate hole where it can safely stay. This way, there is no danger of one of the diamonds scratching the pearl of the other earring.


Pearls can also get affected by hair spray, sweat, body oils, colognes and perfumes. If you’re planning to put on your earrings, best apply cosmetics first. This way, you will minimize chemical contact with your pearls.

Diamond Earrings vs. Pearl Earrings: A Short Comparison

The two most popular gemstones used in wedding are diamond and pearls, both because of their beauty as well as the romantic associations attributed to them, such as purity and commitment.  However, it can be difficult to choose between the two.  Here is a short comparison for those who would like help deciding which set of earrings to choose.

While pearl earrings are mostly limited to stud earrings, there is a wide range of diamond earring styles.  The two most popular types of diamond earrings are stud earrings and dangle earrings.  Stud earrings are essentially a single diamond set into a prong or bezel setting, although there are earrings that have multiple diamonds in a pave setting.  Dangle earrings hang from the ear and have multiple diamonds along the length.

In addition, diamond earrings are far easier to coordinate with wedding rings, which almost always have diamond in them, unless the couple belongs to a society which frowns upon such rings.  Diamonds also can be set in more ways in than pearls, which in turn will reflect the bride’s personality more than pearl studs.

However, diamond earrings that aren’t in a stud format can be problematic as the bride will constantly be worried about losing them.  In addition, diamonds are often cost-prohibitive and brides generally can only afford smaller diamonds.

Pearl earrings also come in different styles, although the most popular is in a stud format.  In addition, the pearls used in stud earrings come in almost any color imaginable, from gold to pink, green, blue and of course the ever popular white and silver pearls.  Pearl earrings are also considerably more affordable than diamonds and they also do not have the issue of whether they are being sold to support violence.  Brides also typically wear pearl jewelry, so pearl stud earrings are a natural choice even if they aren’t as easy to match with wedding rings.

Pearl stud earrings, like most pieces of pearl jewelry are more fragile than diamond jewelry.   This is because a pearl is produced by an animal and any sort of harsh corrosion will erode the nacre coatings the oyster produces, which gives the pearl its beauty and color.  Because of this, the wearer typically has to exercise more caution when cleaning it and avoid the majority of jewelry cleaning solutions.

For  those who would like to use both, there are styles of stud, drop and dangle earrings which make use of both gems, typically using the pearl as the center stone due to its larger size and diamonds as side stones and accent pieces.
