Museum Way Pearls review and giveaway! (CLOSED)



Who said diamonds are a girls ONLY best friends? Pearls add just as much elegance and beauty to girl's attire. In fact I feel every women should have at least one pair of pearl earrings and a matching necklace. I was recently contacted by "Museum Way Pearls" I was very impressed with the information given on their site about their products and company. Some of the things that stood out to me was their 90 Day return guarantee, Free Shipping and Free Appraisal. I also liked the fact that Museum Way Pearl has an "A" rating from the Better Business Bureau. Here is some other information I gathered from their site.

"MuseumWayPearls.com is a Boston, Massachusetts-based pearl jewelry company founded in 2005. We feature gorgeous pearl jewelry at prices that are 75% to 80% less than brick and mortar retail stores. Museum Way Pearls leverages strong relationships with the top global pearl suppliers to bring you unparalleled consistency, quality and value.

Museum Way Pearls offers several different types of pearls, including freshwater pearls, Akoya pearls, Tahitian pearls, and South Sea pearls. We also have a full line of pearl wedding jewelry as well as a Museum Way Collection, which consists of “Hanadama Pearls." These are considered the highest quality Akoya pearls available from any given pearl harvest.
Some of our most popular pieces include Tahitian pearl necklaces, pink pearl bracelets, Akoya pearl jewelry sets and white South Sea pearl earrings. For more information about the pearls we carry, please visit our Learn About Pearls section."


Review:

I was very excited when Museum Way Pearls offered me a free product to review. I just couldn't turn this opportunity down. I was sent the Cultured Akoya Earrings. Included was a certified appraisal which included a description; White (color), 6.5-7.0mm (size), 90% blemish free and AA+ grade. What really caught my eye was the appraised value of ($300.00). I nearly feel of my chair. I don't thinking I have ever had a piece of jewelry worth this much or more, other then my wedding ring.
Even though the color is white these particular pearl earrings had a rose overtone, which I love. The soft pink gives the pearl such a beautiful and elegant look. You too have a choice of having a silver, rose or ivory overtone on the set you order.

It has been a while since I have had a high quality pair earrings. It is amazing the difference of comfort these earrings had on my ear compared to most. These are the perfect pair of earring to wear to church or on a romantic night out to an elegant resturaunt with my husband. Also, if any men are reading this and are looking for a gift to give their significant other (THINK CHRISTMAS), Museum Way Pearls will help you pick out that perfect gift.

Everything they have is quite lovely. My favorite is the 6-7mm White Double Strand Freshwater Pearl Necklace. I have a single strand that I bought when I was 19 (saved up for a long time), and I always thought the double strand was very sophisticated. Thank you for the chance!
