Description
Elevate any ensemble with the striking elegance of this 12mm Tahitian saltwater cultured pearl brooch and pendant.

Frequently asked questions
Is my piece ready to ship or made to order?
Each product page says which. A piece marked “In stock, ready to ship” is on our shelf and leaves the gallery within 1 to 3 business days. A piece marked “Made to order” is chosen and strung for you once you order and ships in 3 to 4 weeks. Bespoke designs from a custom consultation follow their own timeline, typically 4 to 6 weeks.
How long will my order take to process and arrive?
Pieces in stock are typically processed within 1 to 3 business days; made-to-order pieces ship in 3 to 4 weeks. Standard domestic shipping takes 5 to 7 business days following dispatch. Expedited shipping options are available at checkout.
Do your pearl items come with a certificate?
A certificate is not included in the price. For pearl pieces you can add one, issued by an independent gemological laboratory, for $110. It documents the type, size, color, luster and surface of the pearls in your piece. Tick “Add a lab certificate” on the product page, or ask when you order. Pieces without pearls, such as gemstone strands, do not qualify. Our AA+ to AAAA grades are our own; the laboratory report is separate from them.
What is your return and exchange policy?
You can return or exchange unworn pieces in their original packaging within 14 days of receiving your order. To start a return or exchange, contact the gallery or bring the piece to our Bellevue gallery. Custom and altered pieces are final sale.
The full terms are in our refund policy.
How should I clean and care for my pearl jewelry?
Remember the rule: “Pearls should be the last thing you put on and the first thing you take off.” Keep them away from perfume, hairspray, and household chemicals. Wipe them gently with a soft microfiber cloth after each wear. Never submerge pearls in ultrasonic cleaners or harsh chemical dips.
