June birthstone: Pearls

Meaning and Symbolism

Beauty, love, purity, and success

What they are

Pearls are one of the few gems that are not mined—these beautiful stones are instead grown inside mollusks like oysters or clams and can come from salt or freshwater environments. Though pearls are usually white or cream, they can be found in a range of colors like pink, purple, or blue. These beautiful gems have long been considered classics and are still loved in jewelry today!

We source freshwater pearls for our jewelry (permanent jewelry included!). These have a beautiful shine that doesn't dull over time.
