PearlParadise.com

This giveaway is now closed with 367 comments. Thank you to all who entered. Congratulations to the lucky winner ~ KarenL!
I am still in awe as I write this review. The 7.0-8.0 mm Pink Freshwater Pearl Necklace that I received from PearlParadise.com is absolutely breathtaking. My first thought was WOW, which was followed by a gasp and finally a huge smile. How can I incorporate this pearl strand into every outfit I own?!? It's gorgeous. If you think it looks fantastic in the photo, think again ladies, this will blow you away.

Here is some information about the necklace taken from their website:

"This pink to peach pearl necklace is composed of 7.0-8.0mm, natural-color freshwater pearls. They are the highest quality freshwater pearls available, with an inner glow that brings out their warm iridescence. These round (AAA) or near-round (AA+) pearls are individually knotted on twin silk and finished with a 14 karat gold clasp."

Here is a little bit about the company:

"Founded in 1996 and brought online in 2000, Pearl Paradise has grown into the world's largest online pearl company, with 2006 sales topping $20 million. With a custom-built, 1,400-cubic-foot vault filled with pearls, we offer a selection of pearls unlike any other pearl seller, online or off. Our commitment to offering prices 80 percent below retail has accelerated our growth."

If you have never owned a real pearl necklace before, I highly recommend this as your first. It came to me in an elegant gift box and I also received a cleaning cloth to take care of such a prized possession. The color is beautiful, the luster is bright and this high quality piece is one you'll fall in love with.

This necklace is $120 on their website. A very affordable price for such a lovely piece of fine jewelry. PearlParadise.com makes the beauty of pearls available and affordable to everyone. I have my eye on their pearl earrings for Valentine's Day. A hint to the hubby is definitely on my to do list!

PearlParadise.com would like to make you one lucky lady! They are offering their 7.0-8.0 mm Pink Freshwater Pearl Necklace to one lucky reader!

I love the variety of pearls they have and the fact that they have so many multi-colored pieces and sets available. I just wish they carried graduated strands and graduated drop earrings.

one6ylady said...

The best valentines day gift I got was a day of absolute laziness and luxury - no cooking, cleaning, dealing with the kids, plus I got a spa day with a manicure, pedicure, massage, and facial. It was amazing.

clenna said...

I love this site because the pearls are stunning and so different from each other

clenna said...

Long stemmed roses, I know that's not exciting but it's true.(and they were yellow- my fave)

TattingChic said...

OH, this necklace is exquisite! I love pearls! I know, who doesn't? Pearl Paradise is a paradise for sure! I love the 18 inch Tahitian Baroque Pearl Necklace. It's one of their black pearl necklaces and it looks like a soft mint green. It's beautiful, too!

My favorite Valentines gift was roses and chocolate, boring, I know, but It's not like I get an avalanche of them, so I like what I've gotten. LOL!

I would love to keep this necklace to go with an outfit of mine. Or I might give it to my friend who is like a sister to me! I'm pretty sure I would keep it, though, LOL! :)

I LOVE this!! This is actually my favorite - PROMISE! I love that it's so dainty and elegant...but if I had to pick something else I also really like the lavender pearl bracelets. WHO KNEW?!? I've never heard of lavender pearls before!

Jamie said...

This would be all MINE. My husband won't be home for V-Day (military) so I could pretend it was from him...hehe. OR make him wonder where it came from...hahaha!

Jamie said...

The best Valentine's Day gift I've received would be my first Valentine's Day with my husband...he found an antique Fairy Soap Box display and purchased it for me - I love fairies and I collect antique boxes, so it was really a thoughtful gift. I still have it displayed in our home.
