People say that pearls bring bad luck and should not be worn by single women. Is this true?
This stems from the ancient belief that pearls were born of the suffering of the oyster. Pearls today are very much accepted in society, and are, in fact, often the jewelry of choice for weddings and for young ladies. Pearls are very classy and elegant, and bring out the natural beauty of the wearer. Compared to diamonds, they are also more reasonably priced.
