Pearl Bracelets for the Bride
July 7, 2009 by Yelena Jenkins · Leave a Comment
Brides and pearls go together like cookies and milk - quite deliciously. As mentioned in last week’s article on Pearl Earrings for the Bride, pearl jewelry has been a wedding day tradition since weddings became lavish events in the Victorian era. The luminous, lovely pearl has long been a symbol for faith, virtue and purity, precisely why it became such a popular choice for wedding jewelry during those times.
Though many of today’s weddings no longer focus on the theme of purity, marriage is still a leap of faith in which two people pledge to build a life together. The virtues of faith, trust, love and patience are hallmarks of a successful marriage, which is perhaps why pearls are still relevant symbols of a modern marriage. Even for women who only love pearl jewelry because of the beautiful vintage aesthetic, it’s undeniable that the simple pearl makes a simply stunning wedding day accessory. On that note, here are some of our favorite bridal pearl bracelets that we’re excited to introduce: 
8-9 mm Freshwater White Pearl Bracelet
Since the beauty of pearls is their simplicity, one of the best ways to show them off is with a clean, classic design. This lovely freshwater white pearl bracelet is crafted with AAAA quality pearls; pearls that make the highest grade in every category. The superior quality and luster of this pearl bracelet makes it a perfect wedding day pick for brides who want the best. It’s rare that this quality can be found at such an incredible price.
Cultured Black Pearl Double Strand Bracelet
Bold brides will make a dramatic statement with this double strand black pearl bracelet (seen at top). Black pearl jewelry paired with a white wedding gown is such a gorgeous contrast, especially if one of the wedding colors is gray or black. This cultured black pearl bracelet is such a gem (pun intended), and is finished off with a pretty white gold clasp.
White Gold and Diamond South Sea Pearl Bangle
Modern, clean and striking, this gorgeous white gold bangle is set with two exquisite South Sea pearls. The rarest and most beautiful pearls in the world, South Sea pearls are an extremely coveted gemstone. Only the finest pieces of jewelry are crafted with rare South Sea pearls, making this pearl bangle an ideal piece of bridal jewelry.

Show Your Love With Tahitian Black Pearls
February 5, 2009 by Yelena Jenkins · 1 Comment
According to Polynesian legend, the first black pearl oyster was given as a gift from Ono, god of peace and fertility, to the lovely princess of Bora Bora to show his eternal love and affection. Thanks to this beautiful romantic legend, Tahitian black pearls are considered a symbol of love. Along with their romantic connotations, Tahitian black pearls are incredibly rare and hard to culture. This further increases their value and makes them an exceptional gift for all occasions, including Valentine’s Day. Tahitian black pearls are the ideal choice for women who love jewelry but do not particularly like other popular Valentine’s Day options (such as heart-shaped jewelry or pink jewelry).
Apples of Gold is excited to offer our customers a beautiful selection of Tahitian black pearl jewelry. These gorgeous pearls make the perfect Valentine’s Day present, birthday present or holiday gift. Our Tahitian black pearl jewelry selection includes stunning rings, necklaces and earrings to choose from. We’ve highlighted some of our favorites below, all of which are great Valentine’s Day picks.
Tahitian Black Pearl and Diamond Ring
This bold, beautiful ring (seen at top) pops with a massive 10mm naturally cultured Tahitian black pearl set atop a white gold band. Thirty six small diamonds are encrusted in the solid white gold band for a sparkling backdrop against the gorgeous black pearl. This ring is a classic alternative to a cocktail ring; it’s big enough to make a statement but isn’t overpowering and can be worn daily if desired.

Natural Black Tahitian Pearl and Diamond Drop Pendant
Our Tahitian black pearl pendant necklace hangs delicately from a 14k white gold necklace. The exceptionally high quality pearl dangles from a white gold and diamond encrusted pendant that is vintage in design, making it a delightful choice for women who appreciate an enduring romantic style.
Natural Tahitian Round Pearl and Diamond Drop Earrings
Lovely dangling black pearl earrings look gorgeous when framing a woman’s face, and these beauties are no exception. Two large natural Tahitian pearls hang from solid white gold dangle posts and are topped with a contemporary diamond encrusted design. These black pearl earrings are just as versatile as the ring and be worn every day as well as for special occasions. For pink lovers, this pretty design also comes adorned with pink pearls.
