Mid-century style is evident in my new Cultured White Button Pearl 18 inch long necklace. I also used Delica Glass spacer beads and a silver hook and lock fancy clasp to finished this necklace.

According to firemountaingems.com, "Some healers use pearls to help balance body rhythms and hormone levels with lunar cycles, and to harmonize human beings with the natural world. The inner glow (orient) of pearls is thought to tap inner wisdom and nurture love. Pearls are also believed to signify innocence and faith.

Practitioners use pearls to enhance personal integrity, bring truth forward, grow sincerity, inhibit immodest behavior and advance in wisdom.

Natural pearls are still ground up and used in medicine and beauty treatments, as they are a source of pharamaceutical calcium and natural iridescence. They are thought to relieve bloating, increase fertility and ease childbirth.

Pearls are the gemstone for the western Zodiac sign Cancer, the month of June, and the third wedding anniversary."

We recognize Pearls as June's birthstone, but everyone can enjoy wearing them!
