Tribal Indians, too, believed that pearls were tears of their gods. An Arab legend weaves a tale of dewdrops filled with moonlight that fell into the ocean and were swallowed by oysters, creating the precious pearls. The Gates of Heaven are made of pearl, according to the King James Bible. Pearls were rumored to cure hundreds of ailments. There are many more references to the pearl in works of great literature, and the lustrous jewels are often seen in famous paintings as jewelry, hair decorations and clothing adornments.

Pearl Paradise is the largest online pearl company, with pearls at affordable prices for everyday people like myself. It struck me as incredibly fascinating when first receiving the White Freshwater Pearl Earrings from Pearl Paradise. They had come with appraisal papers, estimating their retail value at over $230 and yet to purchase them they would only be between $50 and $66 in their shop. It almost sounds too good to be true, but as my husband is a Pressman for the Wallstreet Journal I trust them and they had given quite an amazing review of Pearl Paradise themselves. In fact, the pearls were so beautiful I refused to touch them for days.
I was impressed by the packaging of the pearls. They came in a beautiful box and they also had a pearl care kit with a cleaning cloth and wipes specific for pearls. It is little details like this that really make a company stand out. I have purchased fine jewelry online before and no one had ever thought to send a personalized stone cleaning kit. I was also incredibly happy that they had as this enabled me to wear them without feeling as though the chemicals in my skin would tarnish them (something I had also learned from the pearl information packet that was included).
