Pearl Blossoms

Pearl Blossom Necklace and Earrings- Original Design by Kaye Sweaney

We’re proud to introduce “Pearl Blossoms”, the newest pearl fashions by Kaye Sweaney of Mardon. Kaye calls these “Pearl Blossoms” because they remind her of cherry blossoms and other flowers. These unique pieces are each made by hand from “Keshi” pearls from the pearl farms of Asia. Keshi are accidental pearls which spontaneously form as by products of pearl cultivation. Keshi are produced in both saltwater and freshwater pearl farms.

Kaye saw these bright but irregular freshwater keshi pearls and fell in love with their soft luster and shifting colors known as “orient.”  They reminded her of flower petals, so she  went to work to develop a way to make her lovely “Pearl Blossom” jewels. After much trial and error, she was able to create these beautiful blossoms.

Pearl Blossom Enhancer

You’ll find “Pearl Blossoms” only at Mardon Jewelers, the best jewelry store in Riverside. The Limited Edition earrings start at $75, the 5 blossom necklace is $295. If we don’t have exactly what you’d like, Kaye will be happy to make  special blossoms just for you!

Don’t forget that June is Pearl Month– Pearls, Moonstone, and Alexandrite are the birthstones for June.

Pearl Blossoms are now on display at Mardon Jewelers at the Canyon Crest Towne Centre, 5225 Canyon Crest Drive, #14. It’s best to enter the center from the Central Avenue entrance– we’re the first store left of Rite Aid. We’re open Tuesday thru Saturday, 10 to 5:30.
