Celebrating Your Thirtieth Anniversary

The thirtieth anniversary is an anniversary you will want to make memorable and special. A significant milestone, you want to make sure your partner knows how important he or she is to you.

Pearl Gift Suggestions

The pearl is both the traditional gift suggestion and the gemstone of the thirtieth anniversary so that seems to make some sort of pearl gift almost mandatory.

Pearls have been popular since Roman times and are the only gem made by a living creature. It is said Cleopatra dissolved a pearl in wine and drank it to prove her love of Marc Antony. While you probably don’t want your special someone to do this, it is a romantic story to go with your thirtieth anniversary gift of pearls.

The Japanese discovered the process of producing cultured pearls in the early 1900’s, and they dominate the cultured pearl market today. Mikimoto, one of the original producers of cultured pearls has an online store with high-quality cultured pearl jewelry collections. The store also offers some accessories for men like pearl cufflinks.

There are many types and colors of pearls depending on the bivalve or snail that produces the pearl. There are also freshwater and saltwater pearls depending on where the pearl was grown. Some of the most popular colors in addition to white pearls are black pearls from the black-lip oyster, blue pearls from the abalone, and the very rare pink pearl from the conch.
