In countless cultures around the world, the pearl has its own origin myth. Arabs believed these gems were the result of the tears of the gods, fallen into the ocean and making their way into the oysters. The Greeks believed that the goddess of love, Aphrodite, shed pearls for tears.
Even the Gates of Heaven were described as carved out of pearl in the Bible. Krishna, the Hindu god gave his beloved wife pearls when they were wed.
Ever since the first pearl was found gleaming inside a shell, pearls have been both coveted and treasured by humans the world over. Originally, the only pearls to be had were natural wild pearls cultivated by oysters and mussels themselves over the years. Throughout history, pearls were greatly desired gemstones by royalty, merchants, explorers and traders.
Modern jewellery, spanning from the mid-20th century to today, embraces bold design, innovation, and individuality.
Breaking away from traditional styles, modern pieces often feature clean lines, abstract forms, and unconventional materials like stainless steel, acrylic, and mixed media – alongside classic metals and gemstones.
Whether minimalist or avant-garde, modern jewellery celebrates self-expression and creativity, reflecting the ever-evolving tastes and cultural influences of contemporary life.
It’s wearable art that’s as diverse and dynamic as the world around us.
As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewellery from Avenue J Jewellery will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan.
We encourage you to have your jewellery checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweller every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place.
It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one!
