October 06, 2017"It's bad luck to wear opal if it's not your birthstone." This is something that we hear from our guests on a regular basis. Where does this superstition come from?

It is a modern tradition that a Bride wears pearls on her wedding day to represent all of the aforementioned virtues. Pearls are being sewn on wedding gowns or worn as earrings or necklaces during the ceremony. Pearls add a touch of class to any outfit and will never fade out of fashion.
