Mixing and matching pearl jewellery is a fantastic way of keeping your look fresh, stylish and true to your unique aesthetic.
Gold pearl jewellery is particularly great for mixing and matching. Exuding timeless elegance, the iridescent glow of pearls pairs beautifully with gentle golden tones, helping to heighten your look.
Whether you’re shopping for a smart but sultry design to pair with formal eveningwear, or you’re after a versatile piece that transitions seamlessly from day to night, incorporating gold pearl jewellery will take your style to new heights.
How to make the most of gold pearl jewellery
Casual outfits
Fine pearl jewellery has its place, but for gold pearl jewellery that brings a little luxury to your everyday, opting for simplicity is best. Choose delicate pieces that will elevate your look without overwhelming it.
Gold pearl earrings
Gold pearl earrings add vintage glamour to an outfit without claiming centre stage. Classic enough to stand the test of time, but with a sophistication that’s difficult to ignore, a pair of gold pearl stud earrings are ideal for everyday wear.
Choose a design like our white freshwater pearl and gold studs to enhance your natural beauty. Wear alone or with a matching white pearl pendant if you’re looking for a touch more glam.
Gold hoop earrings like our white freshwater pearl and gold-plated hoop earrings will offset a low bun, or wear our white freshwater pearl 18ct gold hoop earrings to elongate your neck.
Layered bracelets
Stacking bracelets remains a modish way of wearing the best of your jewellery box in one go.
Mix and match pearl bracelets to create texture, tactility and a key focal point of any look. Pair gold bangles with a design like our limited edition white freshwater pearl triple strand bracelet for eye-catching difference.
A combination of gold jewellery with stacked pearl bracelets looks particularly tasteful with either short sleeves or rolled-up linen shirt sleeves. You can always add in a gold pearl ring to capture the colours on your wrist, too.
Style a pearl pendant
Pearl drop pendants are the epitome of timelessness.
Put a modern twist on a traditional design by choosing our white South Sea pearl, diamond, and 18ct gold ‘hug’ pendant. South Sea pearls are highly prized gems, with each oyster only producing one to two pearls in its lifetime. This award-winning pendant is architecturally elegant, and also comes in a black Tahitian pearl design. Or for a more classic take on a white pearl pendant, choose our white freshwater pearl 18ct gold chain design.
Alternatively, choose a truly one-of-a-kind piece with our grey Tahitian Keshi pearl and diamond ‘kiss’ pendant. Keshi pearls are unique, highly desired gems that are exceptionally rare and naturally irregular. This design was made to evoke soft, subtle memories of stolen kisses with loved ones. Wear with a V-neck shirt or over a crew neck t-shirt.
Work attire
Gold pearl jewellery is a great way of enhancing a professional look without being too distracting.
Keep it matching
A gold pearl ring like our Tahitian pearl and tourmaline gold ring pairs exceptionally with our black Tahitian pearl, green tsavorite and diamond gold pendant. A moody Tahitian pearl is flanked by two diamonds and forest green tsavorite to emulate the colour and shapes of fireflies in the pendant. Meanwhile, the joyful and jazzy ring catches the pendant’s colours and complements them with a fluid movement.
Make a statement
If wearing matching designs doesn’t suit your aesthetic, choose one statement piece to reflect your personality.
Our 18ct white-gold ring is handset with a Tahitian pearl, six diamonds and an amethyst. It wears beautifully as a solo piece, but if you’re looking to pick up the purple tones, you can also don our black Tahitian pearl ‘moon’ diamond and amethyst earrings.
You can also ‘build your own’ ring design, choosing your preferred stones and pearls. Book into a bespoke pearl jewellery appointment with us and design your own gold pearl ring, creating a piece that tells your unique story.
Evening wear
For formal events and evening occasions, gold pearl jewellery offers sophistication, style and glamour.
Wear white gold
The warm tones of yellow gold may be what comes to mind when you think of gold pearl jewellery, but white gold affords even greater luxury – particularly if you’re searching for pearl bridal jewellery.
For statement white gold stud earrings, choose a design like our white South Sea pearl and diamond accent ‘tsarina’ stud earrings. Inspired by Russian queens, these 18ct white gold earrings are decadent enough to bring a touch of ceremony to occasion wear.
For a design with more drop, choose our white South Sea pearl and diamond tsarina olive leaf set. Couple with our matching necklace to make a bold statement.
Alternatively, if a darker pearl paired with white gold is more your style, choose our black Tahitian pearl tsarina white-drop earrings.
Glow golden
Choose a golden pearl necklace in soft champagne hues for real vintage glamour.
Our gold South Sea pearl necklace is one-of-a-kind, with each pearl hand selected for its shape, softness and silky lustre. Complementing all skin tones, the statement necklace is a scene-stealer for any cocktail dress or evening gown.
For a more maximalist take, wear our golden South Sea baroque pearl and Citrine ‘coco coral’ necklace. Swathes of Citrine wrap around three golden South Sea pearls in this award-winning design. Wear solo with an open-necked gown, or coupled with an equally textural pearl bracelet.
