From acting as a bargaining token (Cartier first purchased his store in
New York and paid in full with two strands of pearl necklaces), as a symbol of
marriage, and have represented power and royalty.
Although pearls have
been set into gold, rings, necklaces and crowns, no item has been more popular than
classic pearl necklaces. Traditionally, different pearl strand lengths,
colors, and sizes have been ascribed to status. Today, people are not subject to specific
pearl necklace styles, below are the most popular to choose from:

that are worn snug tight around the middle of the neck. This style compliments
