Pearls: Queen of Gems

Next up, it’s the most beautiful and stunning gemstones of them – Pearls! Pearls can be dated back as early as mankind. They were the easiest to collect and since they were gorgeous from the nascent stage, they didn’t require any cutting or polishing. Considered as the “Queen of Gems” of today, these stones are a pure classic!
History
Pearls were considered highly prized in the lore of Egyptians; the people were buried with their precious pearls. Another fascinating example of pearl’s worthiness was when Cleopatra dissolved a single pearl in a glass of wine and drank it to win a wager with Mark Antony in which she was challenged to consume the wealth of an entire nation in just one meal.
