Meaning and SymbolismThe June birthstone is the luminous pearl. Pearls are unique among gemstones since they are not mined from the earth, but rather treasures from the sea. For centuries pearls were considered the most valuable of all gems. Considered a symbol of friendship, loyalty and faithfulness, the pearl has remained a constant fashion staple for hundreds of years. | Origin and HistoryPearl is the only gemstone that is organic in nature, being created within specific types of living clam and oyster shells. Pearls were set in jewelry as far back as ancient Greece. They were so prized that in the Byzantine Empire, as well as other societies of the time, there were rules as to who could and could not wear the treasured pearl, as they were considered reserved for royalty. | Fun Facts about PearlAlthough many pearls are cream or white in color, pearls also occur in silver, green, lavender, black and golden shades. The ancient Greeks believed pearls were the hardened tears of joy that fell from the eyes of goddess Aphrodite. In Persia and China pearl was powdered and added to medicines as it was believed to be a cure for insanity, among other ailments. |
