The Glitter and Shine of a Pearl and Diamond Necklace

The red carpet has seen many a celebrity adorn themselves with gorgeous offerings of jewelry, such as J Lo, who wore a Winston diamond and South Sea pearl necklace valued at $22,000. Pop star Madonna sported a lavish pearl and diamond necklace, but it is not all about celebrities flaunting their expensive jewelry. An ordinary, everyday-wear pearl and diamond necklace can be bought for as little as $34, while other more ornate pearl and diamond necklaces may cost approximately $1,000 and may consist of natural colored pearls and 14-carat diamonds. The price reflects the glitter and shine of the beautifully designed necklace.

Some Famous Pearl and Diamond Necklace Stories

Recently, the late Princess Margarets family sold her expensive and sentimental pearl and diamond necklace at an auction at Christies for a whopping GB 276,800 to the applause of the gathered audience. What made the family sell this sentimental and valuable pearl and diamond necklace? The answer is that they had to pay GB 3 million to pay the inheritance taxes, and so many expensive and valuable pieces of jewelry had to be auctioned off at Christies. This sale underscores the fact that pearl and diamond necklaces are indeed much sought after and can fetch a decent price as well.

Swan Lake, a pearl and diamond necklace owned by the late Princess Diana, was recently auctioned off at auctioneers Guernseys and was the same necklace worn by the Princess of Wales on her last public appearance prior to her unfortunate death. This was the necklace that she wore at the royal gala performance of Swan Lake at the Royal Albert Hall in London in June 1997, a few months prior to her fateful crash in August that same year.

An Iridescent and Glowing Pearl and Diamond Necklace

The idea behind a pearl and diamond necklace is to blend the glow and radiance of pearls with the iridescence of diamonds to give an altogether dazzling and alluring effect. The diamond that you have in your pearl and diamond necklace should be cut dexterously for maximum brilliance and fire, have clarity, be as free as possible of minerals and crystals, have color ranging from colorless to light yellow, and be of a size that depends on the weight. Add pearls to the diamond necklace and give the ornament an iridescence and classic feel that cannot be matched except by a beautiful woman.

Choosing the ideal pearl and diamond necklace may depend on the color of the skin tone of the wearer. Light colored skin fits well with pink colored pearls, while golden colored pearls fit well with darker skins.
