Pearl jewelry
Pearls are considered to be organic gemstones formed inside the shells of marine and freshwater mollusks, unlike most other gemstones, which are mineral-based. This natural process makes them unique and delicate, with a hardness of 2.5–4.5 on the Mohs scale.
What are the different types of pearls?
Freshwater Pearls: Cultivated on freshwater pearl farms, these popular pearls have a wide range of shapes, sizes and colors. Though they are typically white, natural freshwater pearls can have a pink or lavender tone.
Akoya Pearls: Found in China, Vietnam, and Japan, these highly sought-after pearls are more lustrous, rounder and smoother than other types. They grow slowly in cold ocean waters, resulting in rare pearls of exceptional quality.
Tahitian Pearls: Cultivated in French Polynesia by special oysters, these pearls appear dark with metallic green, gray, blue, pink or lavender luster, making each pearl completely unique.
South Sea Pearls: Found in Australia, Myanmar, and Indonesia, these are the most valuable cultured pearls. Growing quite large (up to 20 mm), their shades range from white to honey gold, sometimes with pink, green, or blue hues.
How is the value of a pearl determined?
The value of pearls is based on factors such as shape (excluding baroque pearls), luster, surface smoothness, and size. Nature is not perfect, therefore no genuine pearl is perfectly round and smooth. The degree of imperfections determines the quality of a pearl. The luster and surface quality range from AAA to B, with AAA being the highest.
For each piece of pearl jewelry, we provide the pearl's approximate diameter in millimeters in the product details.
What are baroque pearls?
The term baroque pearl refers to both freshwater and saltwater pearls that are prized for their irregular shape. Highly sought after for their individuality and organic nature, baroque pearls are best suited for contemporary jewelry designs. No two pearls are ever the same, resulting in truly unique pieces for your collection.
How to care for pearl jewelry?
Pearls maintain their luster through regular contact with the natural oils from your skin, so wear them frequently. However, their delicate nature requires careful handling.
Avoid exposing pearls to cosmetics and chemicals such as perfumes, hairsprays, and lotions, as these can damage their surface. It’s important not to wear your pearl jewelry while showering, bathing, or swimming, as this can weaken the adhesive or string holding the pearls together.
Clean your jewelry using a soft, damp cloth with soapy water, ensuring you do not soak or fully submerge the pearls.

Diamond jewelry
Diamonds are the hardest natural material on Earth, making them unparalleled in durability and brilliance. As timeless treasures, they are celebrated for their radiant luster and symbolic significance, remaining stunning for generations even with minimal care.
What are the 4Cs in evaluating the quality of a diamond?
The 4Cs refer to cut, clarity, color, and carat (weight). These properties are used to evaluate and certify the quality of diamonds, significantly influencing their price. When shopping for diamond jewelry, these are the main aspects you should consider to find the perfect balance between value and beauty that fits your budget.

How does the cut affect a diamond's appearance?
The cut determines how well a diamond reflects light and is perhaps the most important factor affecting its beauty. All cuts aim to maximize the diamond’s optical properties, balancing its brilliance, fire and sparkle. The round brilliant cut is the most popular, striking the perfect balance between these qualities.
Diamonds can also be cut into various “fantasy” shapes, such as marquise, baguette, heart, teardrop, oval, and princess, offering unique shapes and styles for different tastes. Cut grading considers several criteria, including the type of cut, its proportions relative to weight, the symmetry of individual facets, and the quality of their polish.

What is diamond clarity, and how is it graded?
Clarity is based on the number, size, and placement of inclusions (internal impurities or imperfections):
- IF (Internally Flawless): No inclusions
- VVS1, VVS2 (Very Very Slightly Included): Very small inclusions
- VS1, VS2 (Very Slightly Included): Small inclusions
- SI1, SI2 (Slightly Included): Inclusions visible with a magnifying glass
- I1, I2, I3 (Included): Medium to larger inclusions visible to the naked eye, also labeled as "P" in the Czech Republic
What does a diamond’s color grade mean?
Diamond color is graded based on how close the stone is to being colorless. Most natural diamonds have a yellow hue. Colors are graded based on this international scale:
- D to F: Colorless
- G to J: Near colorless
- K to M: Faint yellow tint
- N to Z: Brown-yellow tint
Other diamond colors are called fancy and are highly desired, such as green or blue. Fancy color diamond have their own color grading scale and can be treated to enhance their hue.
What is a carat and how is a diamond’s weight measured?
The weight of diamonds is expressed in carats (ct) to two decimal places. One carat equals 0.2 grams. For earrings or jewelry with multiple diamonds, we specify the total carat weight of all diamonds in the product details.
How to care for diamond jewelry?
To clean diamond jewelry, soak it in warm soapy water and use a soft brush to remove any dirt. Only a diamond can scratch another diamond, so protecting its setting is the more important aspect. Avoid wearing your jewelry during strenuous activites, where it can be exposed to excessive pressure, impact and other physical damage that could loosen the stone.
