GIFT A PEARL FOR YOUR 30-YEAR WEDDING ANNIVERSARY
If you were married in 1994, congratulations on your 30-year wedding anniversary! And if you have not yet celebrated the occasion, the good news is the traditional gift to mark 30 years of marriage is a pearl, which means you will not be short of beautiful gift choices for your partner.

PURITY AND WISDOM Pearls are one of the most elegant and versatile gems, signifying purity and wisdom, as well as having associations with the moon and water. Whether occurring naturally or cultured, they can come in a wide variety of colours from perhaps the most traditional white pearl, to a black, pink, gold or even chocolate brown. Compared to perhaps ‘glitzier’ gemstones like diamonds or sapphires formed of carbon, the more understated but no less striking pearl is formed organically which only enhances its appeal when marking a joint celebration with a life partner of 30 years.
FIND THE PERFECT PEARL While the versatility of pearls means you can be spoiled for choice when looking for that extra special anniversary gift, a perfect place to find some of the most exquisitely crafted pearl jewellery is the Mikimoto collection. The founder – Kokichi Mikimoto – spent his life devoted to pearls and was the first to successfully create the world’s first cultured pearls in the late 19th century. Today, more than a hundred years later, the Mikimoto range offers a wide range of elegant pieces to match every occasion.
THE PEARL IS THE STAR If you are looking for earrings, a pair of Mikimoto 18ct White Gold Akoya Cultured Pearl and Diamond Earrings combine the sparkle of a diamond snowflake with the lustre and timeless appeal of a pearl drop. Or, if it’s a pendant your partner might prefer, how about an 18ct Rose Gold Akoya Cultured Pearl and Diamond Pendant? This delightful pendant necklace features an open flower shape set with brilliant cut diamonds surrounding a single Akoya cultured pearl. Alternatively, why not choose a bracelet like Mikimoto’s 18ct White
