Pearl is the birthstone for the month of June. It is also the gemstone for celebrating the 3rd and 13th anniversary. Pearls are known as the emblem of modesty, chastity and purity. Pearls symbolizes love, success, and happiness. Pearls come in a wide range of shapes, sizes, colors, and luster. Pearls are available in a wide range of colors: white, cream, rose, gray, black, blue, gold, lavender, or a combination. Most pearls sold today are cultured. Pearls come from oysters, mussels, and other mollusks. Natural pearls are found in nature with no help from humans. While a cultured pearls come from oyster and other mollusks humans impregnate the oysters to produce the pearl. Mikimoto was the man who discovered the secret to cultured pearls. Today, Mikimoto is the top pearl company in the world. Only the top 5% of all cultured pearls in the world are of a high enough quality to be called Mikimoto. Every woman deserves a stand of pearls and the original strand was created by Mikimoto. If you have someone special in your life with a birthday in June or if you will soon be celebrating your 3rd, 13th, or 63rdanniversary, I would recommend a strand of Mikimoto pearls.
