Say hello to sweet simplicity

Pearls are the traditional birthstone for June, and quite possibly the most loved gems of all-time.

Occurring naturally in nature, lustrous pearls are the only gemstones made by living creatures and carry a rich history of symbolism and tradition.

'Pearl' named after the Old French 'perle' which is said to come from the Latin 'perna' which means 'leg', referring to the shape of an open mollusk shell. Today, 'pearl' is used to describe anything rare and valuable - including wisdom.

Symbolism & Meaning of June's Birthstone

Pearls are long associated with innocence, beauty, grace, loyalty, wisdom and purity. They are often chosen as bridal jewelry and gifts due to this association.

Many believe pearls also promote inner piece and hold protective powers. Associated with nature, these treasures of the water hold mystery and power. The spherical shape has also been associated with the moon in many cultures.

Throughout history, pearls have carried status, story, and significance. In ancient China, pearls were said to provide protection from fire. In Sanskrit texts, pearls are written to bring prosperity and a long life. In ancient Greek civilizations, they were said to be teardrops from heaven and the Eastern cultures historically believed pearls to be healing. In Europe, they symbolized purity and modesty, lending to the modern tradition of gifting pearls to brides.
