As a fashion enthusiast and lover of all things beautiful, there's one element of jewellery that never goes out of style – the freshwater pearl. These precious gems are more than just stunning accessories; they carry with them a unique magicand power that enhances both our style and energy. At Bellish, we craft our jewellery with genuine freshwater pearls, each one unique, full of life, and symbolising elegance and positivity.
What Are Freshwater Pearls and How Are They Made?
Freshwater pearls are the result of a fascinating process that begins with mussels and oysters in freshwater farms. Unlike saltwater pearls, freshwater pearls are cultivated in rivers, lakes, and ponds, where they form inside mollusks after being implanted with a tiny bead. Over time, layers of nacre (mother-of-pearl) are secreted around the bead, resulting in the beautiful pearl we cherish today.
The process of cultivating freshwater pearls is delicate and requires patience. These pearls are carefully nurtured by skilled artisans who ensure that the pearls grow to perfection, resulting in unique and high-quality gems. Each one is completely natural and unaltered, giving you a genuine and authentic piece of nature. No two freshwater pearls are ever exactly the same, which makes each piece of jewellery crafted from them truly one-of-a-kind.
The Magical Powers of Freshwater Pearls
Wearing freshwater pearls isn't just about beauty – it’s about inviting positive energy and healing power into your life. These pearls are known for their calming and balancing properties. They are said to bring emotional peace and harmony, helping the wearer to stay grounded and calm, no matter what life throws their way. For centuries, pearls have been regarded as symbols of purity, wisdom, and feminine energy.
When you wear jewellery made from freshwater pearls, you’re not just adorning yourself with a beautiful gem; you’re embracing its mystical power to bring out your inner strength and confidence. Whether you're wearing them for self-love, protection, or to enhance your inner peace, freshwater pearls can work wonders on both your appearance and your energy.
How to Care for Your Freshwater Pearls
Freshwater pearls are delicate, and like all fine jewellery, they require care to preserve their lustre and beauty. To ensure your pearls stay as stunning as the day you bought them, here are a few tips for proper care:
-
Keep them away from chemicals: Avoid contact with lotions, perfumes, or hairspray, as these can dull the surface of your pearls.
-
Store them properly: When you’re not wearing your pearls, store them in a soft pouch or a jewellery box to avoid scratching them.
-
Clean them gently: Use a soft cloth to clean your pearls, and never use abrasive cleaners. A gentle wipe after each wear will help maintain their shine.
-
Avoid excessive moisture: While freshwater pearls are naturally resistant to water, it's best to remove your pearls before swimming or showering.
