Anyone hungry for a bit of trivia?


So yesterday evening I was just doin' my midnight web searching. You know? Where you're supposed to be getting that good night's sleep, but just ain't ready. That time where all your friends are off Facebook and chat rooms are all empty so you just search random stuff on either Google or Youtube or something hoping to find something that's worth your read. Yeah, that was moi just last night, it came at the price of a couple of eye sags, but I did stumble over something pretty fascinating. Just thought I'd post it up here for all you folks to check out.


Way way way back, before my time, my grandfather's, and a lot of other old people, the pearl has always, and still is thought of as a symbol of impeccable un-tarnishable perfection (hence, its Latin meaning of "unique"). It is known as the oldest gem and used to be considered the most valuable until the diamond came in to the picture and kicked butt. For the very first time, the word pearl skipped along and entered itself into our English language in the fourteenth century. It's super old to put it flatly, another reason it screams "CLASSIC!" and no one ever messes with a classic.


In Europe the pearl was used already used as jewelry by both men and women and was highly popular during the thirteenth and fourteenth century (as it still is). Several other European countries, such as Rome, on the other hand only allowed one with high status walk around in all the bling. That one new high school teacher who wanted to make the Good First Impression would have never been able to even walk out of the house. Not even lawyers. Now though, we lucky ducks, walk up and down the side walk in these preciousness.


They--the pearls--have also been considered one of the most perfect wedding gifts because of their meaning of purity and innocence. LIke, seriously dudes, it's like somewhere in the top three best. Ditch the Wal-Mart broiler you know they've already got, because I'm telling you what they--okay, mostly the bride--will appreciate the most. Do not end up as the friend with the stingy reputation. In Hindu religion, part of the marriage practice is the piercing of a perfect pearl during the ceremony. Don't know if you ever noticed this, but no two pearls are alike. Just like snowflakes, both are beautiful, both delicate, but only one can you wear and make the biggest jaw dropping statement in the room.


Admit it. Now. We've all had "those days." "Those days" we go window shopping and get a little too literal and before you know it you've got your nose snubbed up to the window and your breath's foggin' up the glass. Plus you've got the manager calling the two biggest buffest--and definitely scariest--security guards in the mall. Okay, a bit of a stretch. Well fear no more dearie, we've all found our simple solution a click away. Feel beautiful gorgeous classy elegant in one whirlwind from the moment your put on your brand new pearl jewelry from Orientalpearls.net.


P.S. Something to tell the kids: Pocahontas' father, Powhattan, was a big time pearl seller.

The Myth of the Pearl

Pearls have often been called "The Fairies of Water" as they are the soul of beauty and love. The Myth from Persia believes that pearls are the result of different spirits’ tears. Interesting, you might say - but there are lots of myths when it comes to pearls. From the old times until today, pearls are deemed to be a gift to the earth by various spirits. In Ancient India, people believed that pearls were made from the dew of the sun’s first rays in the morning.

People in Roman times believed that the origins of pearls are connected with Venus. It is said that the water that dropped from Venus’ body was so affected by her beauty and appeal that it ultimately formed into pearls, and that is where the pearl gains its lofty and holy status.

Pearls are regarded by some as the symbol of power, perfection, luck, hope, happiness, honor, and for many, are praised as the “Queen of Gems.” Their value even exceeds that of diamonds.


No one knows when pearls were first discovered but many believe it was long before recorded history. Pearls are unlike any other precious gemstone because they need no enhancement such as cutting or polishing to help one admire their captivating beauty. Pearls truly were the first prized gems because of their beauty and rarity. Pearls were also one of the most sought after gems as noted in ancient records.


Pearls were highly revered by Romans, rulers of Ancient India, the Chinese, etc. Pearls have been attributed with having great powers and have been incorporated into the mythology of virtually every culture that has encountered them. Countless references to the pearl can be found in the religions and mythology of cultures from the earliest times. The ancient Egyptians prized their pearls so much they were buried with them. Cleopatra reportedly dissolved a single pearl in a glass of wine and drank it. She did this simply to win a wager with Mark Anthony that she could consume the wealth of an entire nation in just one meal.


The Ancient Chinese considered natural black pearls as symbols of wisdom and thought them to be created in the brains of dragons. They believed that one had to kill the dragon to harvest the pearl, which was held safely between the dragon’s teeth. In ancient Rome, pearls were considered the ultimate symbol of wealth and social standing. The Greeks held the pearl in high esteem for both its unrivaled beauty and its association with love and marriage. During the Dark Ages, while fair maidens of nobility cherished delicate pearl necklaces, gallant knights often wore pearls into battle. They believed the magic of these lustrous gems would protect them from harm.


The ancient Greeks also believed pearls should be a part of the wedding ceremony. They thought pearls would bring love and all guests of the wedding were adorned in pearls. Pearls were sacred wedding gems given as gifts and the word “pearl” became highly associated with “love.” The Greeks and Romans also believed that pearls were formed when raindrops or dewdrops accidentally fell into an oyster. The Hindus, who spent a lot of time pondering where pearls came from, were convinced they formed in the brain and stomach of elephants. Hindu folklore speaks of pearls as dewdrops that fell out of the night and into the sea. Ancient Hindu writings refer to pearls as bringing longevity and prosperity. The writings also tell an ancient story of Krishna (or Vishnu) who plucked the first pearl from the depths of the ocean and gave it to his daughter Pandaia on her wedding day.


This Hindu story is one of the earliest known accounts of pearls in the wedding experience. Hindus also associated pearls with wild boars, elephants, snakes, fish and only very rarely with oysters. For Hindus, the pearl is one of the planetary gems, associated with the moon and second only to the diamond in regard. The Indian rulers considered the luminous gemstones to be symbols of love, union, and purity.


The Japanese believed that pearls are the tears of mythical characters such as mermaids, nymphs and angels. Also, pearls were often featured in stories of pain and suffering.
Persians believed that pearls were born when a rainbow met the Earth, and any irregularities in the pearls were thought to be a consequence of thunder.


An ancient legend from Ceylon speaks of Adam and Eve whose many shed tears created a lake of pearls. The white pearls were believed to be from Eve’s tears and the black from Adam. It is further believed that because man is better able to control his emotions and thus shed fewer tears this explains the rarity of black pearls.


Pearls are also referenced in religious writings. They are associated with high value and reverence in early Christian writings of the Virgin Mary and Jesus. Pearls are also found in Jewish literature where the gems are used as metaphors to compare things of very high regard.
Islamic tradition holds pearls in even higher esteem. In Islamic thought, pearls represent perfection and completeness. By the Middle Ages, pearls had become included among the most sacred of precious objects due to their identification with religious purity in Christianity. Early Christians described the Holy Grail as being embellished with pearls to give the holy water magical powers. They adorned bibles, icons, and religious artifacts. These artifacts were frequently put on display during major religious holidays and Christianity also adopted the pearl as a symbol of purity.


The Koran speaks of pearls as one of the great rewards found in Paradise, and the gem itself has become a symbol of perfection.


Many of the ideas that have long been known as pearl legends, still persist even today. For example, pearls are often associated with brides and weddings -- a concept possibly dating back to Krishna and the wedding of his daughter. Pearls are also said to symbolize tears and purity, to provide love and fertility, and to ward off evil.


In addition, the colors of pearls also have their symbolic meaning: Colored pearls have their own
lore. Here are some of the mythical benefits of owning a colored pearl.


A blue shade means you’ll find love. Black or gold is for wealth; you’ll learn to know yourself and become prosperous. Gold tone means you’ll become wealthy. Pink tints are associated with success; you’ll earn fame and good fortune.


Long before written history, human beings most likely discovered the first pearl while searching the seashore for food. Throughout history, the pearl, with its warm inner glow and shimmering iridescence has been one of the most highly prized and sought-after gems. No natural wonder of the world has been given the same mysterious beauty of that of a pearl. One could argue that pearls might indeed be a gift from the gods.
