REVIEW with GIVEAWAY: PearlDistributors.com Bracelet

There is something so elegant, classic and very feminine about pearl jewelry. Adding a beautiful string of pearls to your outfit is the perfect way to add a touch of subtle glamour to any type of outfit, by day or by night. Finding quality pearls never got easier or more reasonable thanks to PearlDistributors.com I am so anxious to introduce you to this very fine company and the exceptional line of pearls that they offer. And it is my great pleasure to be able to include them in my New Year, New You 2010 Guide! Not only will you see some magnificent pearl pieces throughout my review, but you will also have a chance to enter my giveaway for a breathtaking multi-colored pearl bracelet, it is just amazing! Please read on to see what PearlDistributors.com has to offer:


Let me introduce Pearl Distributors to you and fill you in on some information about them as a company and what they offer:

The company was established in 2004. They are based in Santa Monica, California, which is where their vault is and the pearls ship from there around the country and internationally. They also have offices in Canada and England. The following are what we consider to be our strengths:

Quality:

We strive for excellence in both our products and our service. There is a lot of misleading advertisement in the pearl industry. Many pearls are advertised as “top quality” or AA or AAA or even as a non-existent AAAA but are really inferior quality to the AA at Pearl Distributors. We encourage new customers to purchase with a 90 day money back guarantee a strand or even a pair of AAA earrings from us and take it in to their local jewelry store or another online pearl company to compare the quality. Often pearls with a price tag many times higher than ours look dull and sometimes almost chalky next to one of our highest quality strands. We also recommend customers review the information in the Pearl Library on distinguishing between real pearls and imitation pearls. At Pearl Distributors we only sell genuine saltwater and freshwater pearls. We do not sell pearls of a lower quality than AA+.

Guarantee:

We offer a full 100% money back guarantee for 90 days.

Family oriented rather than impersonal:

We are a family run business and take a personal interest in each customer to make sure they get exactly what they’re looking for.

Knowledgeable advisors:

Our customer service advisors are very knowledgeable and can help customers make a more educated choice so they get the type of pearls that have the characteristics that are important to them personally. Our website also has an extensive Pearl Library of fascinating information on the formation and characteristics of different pearls.

Custom designs:

Sometimes you want something that nobody else has! We accept custom requests and make pearl strands in any length, type, or color combination for our customers.

Price:

We get pearls direct from pearl farms in China, French Polynesia, Japan and the South Pacific and sell directly to the public without the expense of a retail store, so pass on the savings to our customers. Our jewelry is sold at more than 80% less than its retail value. So if a man wants to buy his wife a pearl set worth thousands of dollars, he can get it from us for a few hundred.

Free Shipping:

We offer free shipping for any purchase over $75.00

Coupons:

We have a membership club called the Friends and Family Club. Anyone who has ever purchased from us is eligible to join the club. They then receive a membership number allowing them to get a 10% discount off any purchase. The membership number can be shared with friends and family to get a discount for them as well.

Now let me share with you MY THOUGHTS about the bracelet:

Let me begin by saying from the moment I opened the package I received from PearlDistributors.com it was a First Class and very special experience that I won't forget. Everything arrived to me impeccably packaged and put together. The bracelet is housed in a lovely high quality gift box that just by holding in your hands and looking at it you instinctly know it came from an exclusive shop. Along with the wonderfully boxed bracelet I also received the equally impressive Certificate of Authenticity and Appraisal documenting exactly what the bracelet is, all of its specifications, and most importantly the appraised value of the bracelet. There was also included the PearlDistributors.com business card that also contains instructions on how to care for Pearls, which will come in so handy since I was not aware of how to care for my new pearl bracelet.

It is amazing to me that the bracelet is valued at $440.00 and you can purchase it from PearlDistributors.com for only $89.00. That is just fantastic, such a great price for such an exquisite piece of fine jewelry. I can't think of a more perfect piece of jewelry to add to your arsenal of fashion accessories to kick off your New Year with the ultimate in femininity and elegance!

I cannot stress enough how meticulously crafted this bracelet is. I am a gal who has loved pearl jewelry all my life and believe me when I say this bracelet is of the finest quality, it truly is. I know I will be able to wear it so much and that it will stand the test of time in both style, and wear and tear. I have no doubt it can withstand daily wear without the worry of being damaged or broken.

There is nothing more pleasing to my eye than to be able to look down at my wrist and see a simple, glamorous, divine multicolor pearl bracelet gracing it. It makes me feel confident, feminine and pulled together. Even if I am simple wearing a plain white top and a pair of jeans, adding the pearl bracelet is the perfect fashion element to give my outfit a polished chic look.

Visit PearlDistributors.com to see all the other absolutely decadent pieces they have to offer. You will fall in love with so many, that I can assure you!
