What makes the Magnolia freshwater and mother of pearl earrings unique?
The Magnolia earrings combine luminous white freshwater pearls with intricately carved mother of pearl petals, creating a soft, floral silhouette. This blend of materials gives the earrings a sculptural, dimensional look that feels feminine and artistic. The contrast between the satiny pearl and the iridescent mother of pearl adds a uniquely elegant touch not found in traditional pearl earrings.
Are freshwater pearl and mother of pearl earrings suitable for everyday wear?
Yes---these earrings are lightweight, comfortable, and easy to wear for both casual and dressy occasions. The floral design adds a subtle statement, while the neutral white tones make them highly versatile. To keep them looking their best, avoid exposing them to perfume, hairspray, or harsh chemicals, and store them carefully between wears.
How can I tell if the pearls in these earrings are genuine?
Authentic freshwater pearls have natural variations in shape, a soft inner glow, and a slightly gritty texture when gently rubbed against your teeth. Imitation pearls feel perfectly smooth and often appear too uniform. Every pair of earrings from The Pearl Source includes a certificate of authenticity confirming that the pearls are 100% cultured and of premium quality.
What materials are used in the Magnolia earrings?
The Magnolia earrings feature genuine white freshwater pearls paired with carved mother of pearl accents. They are typically set in high-quality 14K gold or sterling silver, depending on the selected style. The combination of real pearl, natural shell, and fine metal ensures durability and a refined finish.
How do I care for and clean my freshwater and mother of pearl earrings?
After wearing, gently wipe the pearls and mother of pearl surface with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove oils and residue. Store the earrings separately in a soft pouch to prevent scratches. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners, soaking in water, or exposure to harsh chemicals. For gentle cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap, then pat dry completely.
