14KW BUTTON PEARL EARRINGS

Gold: 14 karat (white)
Pearl Size: 9mm

Rare, versatile and highly desirable, gold makes beautiful jewelry of all kinds. However, pure gold (24k) is too soft to be used by itself in jewelry, so it must be combined with an alloy. “White Gold” is combined with copper, zinc, and nickel to strengthen the metal and give it a platinum-like appearance designed to offset many precious gemstones, including diamonds. 14k Gold is composed of 58.3% gold and 41.7% alloy.

Once removed from the oyster, pearls are first sorted by size and then by color and shape. Because they are created by nature, pearls will have their own birthmarks - blemishes or irregular surfaces. Pearls with only a single blemish will be used for earrings, cuff links and tie tacks.

Each pair ships with velvet-gray gift box.
