Pearl Jewelry - FAQ
-
What types of pearls do you use?
Erin Gallagher Jewelry uses genuine freshwater pearls and baroque pearls. Freshwater pearls offer a classic round shape and consistent luster. Baroque pearls have organic, irregular forms — no two are identical — for a more contemporary look. All pearls are genuine, never synthetic or imitation.
-
What is the price range for pearl jewelry?
Pearl charms start at $20 and fine pearl jewelry starts at $75. Necklaces range from $75 to $825, earrings from $95 to $675, and bracelets from $95 to $350. All pieces are handcrafted in Steamboat Springs, Colorado using genuine pearls set in 14K gold, gold-fill, or recycled sterling silver. Free shipping on orders over $150.
-
Can I wear pearl jewelry every day?
Yes, with proper care. Pearl rates 2.5 to 3 on the Mohs hardness scale, making it one of the softer gemstones. Put pearls on last — after perfume and hairspray. Wipe with a soft cloth after each wear and store separately from harder stones to prevent scratches. With that routine, pearl jewelry holds up well to daily wear.
-
What metal options are available for pearl jewelry?
Pearl jewelry at Erin Gallagher is available in 14K yellow, white, and rose gold, gold-fill, recycled sterling silver, oxidized sterling silver, and rose gold-fill. 14K gold pieces are solid gold throughout. Gold-fill contains a thick layer of gold bonded to a base metal and is suitable for everyday wear.
-
Is pearl jewelry a good gift?
Pearl is the primary birthstone for June and the traditional gift for 3rd and 30th wedding anniversaries, making it one of the most meaningful birthstone gifts you can give. Every order at Erin Gallagher Jewelry ships gift-ready with a signature box, gift bag, tissue, polishing cloth, and blank notecard — no extra wrapping needed.
-

More Details
Pearl Drop Necklace
Pearl is the only gemstone made by a living creature, and that origin gives it a warmth that no other stone quite replicates. Its soft, luminous glow does not sparkle so much as it radiates - a subtle, reflective light that feels earned rather than performed. It is intimate in a way that feels right for the people and moments that matter most.
Pearls have been associated with wisdom, calm, and inner confidence across cultures for centuries. Their beauty transcends trends, offering a sense of quiet elegance that feels just as relevant today as it did generations ago. Handcrafted in Steamboat Springs, Colorado, each piece is made to order using a genuine pearl and recycled metals.
Whether chosen to mark a milestone, given as a graduation or thank-you gift, or worn as a personal reminder of grace and quiet strength, this pearl necklace is designed to feel timeless, personal, and deeply wearable.
Why Pearl?
Pearl is the June birthstone, celebrated across cultures as a symbol of wisdom, purity, and emotional balance. Each pearl is hand-selected for luster and shape, then set simply so its natural beauty remains the focus. Clean, refined, and modern - so the pearl can speak for itself.
