Majorica pearl jewelry has recently become more and more popular among fashionistas and lovers of exquisite jewelry. This type of material stores an inexhaustible number of possibilities for creating beautiful things. And in the hands of the masters, exclusive copies are born from it. What is it - Majorica pearls, what are the features of creating and caring for them? These questions are most likely interested in every woman who has become the owner of jewelry made from these wonderful beads.

Majorica pearls owe their creation to Spanish jewelers who, through careful research, were able to create a technology thanks to which pearls are born that are identical to natural ones. The famous Spanish brand has many fans in many countries., and in Russia as well. After all, the products of the factory are made of high quality pearls, in addition to which are various metals, including silver and gold, stones - semiprecious and synthetic. All this together creates very beautiful jewelry.

The factory itself is located on the island of Mallorca. It houses research laboratories, production facilities, design studios, and other structural divisions, whose work is aimed at delivering products of their factory to shops in Spain and other countries.

The main office is located in Barcelona and there is also a branch in New York. Factory products can be found on store shelves in hundreds of countries. The catalogs representing various jewelry are updated several times a year and contain more than 600 different items.The manufacturer gives a ten-year warranty for jewelry made at the factory. This means that the manufacturer is confident in the quality of his products.

It all began in the 18th century, when a German engineer in France discovered an interesting method with which you can make beads of amazing beauty. He patented this method, and he himself moved to the island of Mallorca, where the production of pearls began.

Thanks to painstaking work, modern technologies and careful control of the entire production chain, specialists create artificial pearls of the ideal color, the required ebb, shine, correct texture and high strength. Every pearl is born with painstaking work of professionals. Creating one can take ten days, maybe a month. The creation process is identical to what happens in the sink. The glass crystal is covered with pearl essence - layer by layer. It is a combination of marine organic elements (pearl dust, fish scales), thanks to which the pearl then acquires its overflow.

After the crystal has been coated with essence, it is carefully polished after drying. Then there can be from 20 to 40 such stages. The more there are, the more valuable the pearl. Each layer goes through a thorough polishing process. And the final stage is covering the resulting bead with mother-of-pearl. After which it is exposed to ultraviolet light treatment.

Majorica has certain properties, thanks to which it is easy to understand that before us are quality organic pearls, not a cheap fake.

• If the pearl is white, it shimmers in the sun, and in this overflow you can catch the shades of the rainbow. Its shine speaks of high quality.
• In addition, the pearl has a characteristic luster reminiscent of a satin surface.
• It is important that the pearl should have an even, smooth texture over the entire surface. No slightest cloudiness, scratches, dents, chips are allowed.
• Majorica is distinguished by its high strength. It is resistant to environmental influences and can last for a long time. The sun's rays, salt water, cosmetic formulations - all this does not have any destructive effect on the beads.
• This type of pearl can have any color and shade, which allows you to create a variety of jewelry. The desired shade is achieved by adding natural dyes. For example, to get a delicate lilac hue, manganese is added during the bead making process. Iron is involved in the creation of red tones. Copper helps in obtaining green tints.

There are many positive aspects of jewelry made from this type of pearl. Based on the characteristics of the beads themselves, we can conclude that jewelry will have the same benefits.

• First of all, these jewelry can be very diverse in style and design. Bracelets, necklaces, earrings, rings will be a great addition to any outfit - evening and everyday. They are able to cheer up their owner and give self-confidence, as they look elegant and original.
• Manufacturing technology allows you to make jewelry in different shades with a combination of metals, including precious ones. When using various jewelry accessories as an addition, real works of art are born in the hands of the master.
• Resistance to external factors will allow the jewelry to last for a long time, and with proper care it will not lose its original appearance. Over time, the beads will not lose their iridescent shine and will not crack due to a special manufacturing technology.The same cannot be said for natural pearls, which require certain wearing conditions; over time, they can lose their luster and crack if used incorrectly. Natural pearls contain moisture, which evaporates over time. Therefore, from time to time, pearls need a humid environment.
• Majorica beads are distinguished by their impeccable shape. They can be medium to large, but always smooth and shiny, with a range of shades. The pearls are of medium weight, it feels like they are certainly not plastic. But you can't call them heavy either. Wearing earrings with these beads is quite comfortable for the ears.
• Absolutely everyone can use these jewelry. If natural pearls may have zodiac sign restrictions, then these beads will suit everyone.
• The pluses include the fact that almost every woman can afford such a piece of jewelry. Of course, the cost will depend on what other elements are used in the decoration: metals, stones, materials. The cost will also depend on how many beads are used in the decoration. It is clear that earrings or a ring will cost less (if precious metals are not present in the manufacture) than long beads, a massive necklace or a bracelet made of several sets.

The disadvantages include very few factors. Perhaps for those who do not accept artificial jewelry in any form, the knowledge that pearls are grown in special laboratories will become a defect. Another subtlety is that these pearls are not suitable for carrying out any magical rituals or will not fulfill the role of amulets and amulets, since they do not possess the characteristics of a natural stone.

Any thing, especially jewelry, requires care. Then it will last a long time and will not lose its attractiveness. The same goes for this type of pearl. A few rules are easy to follow.

1. Although the coating is considered to be durable, careful handling is essential. Water and sun are not afraid of pearls. But mechanical stress is best avoided. You can not throw jewelry, hit a hard surface. In this case, chips may occur on the product.
2. It is recommended to store the bracelet or necklace in a separate soft bag so that it does not come into contact with other jewelry. A jewelry box will do, but it is advisable that it does not contain any jewelry with sharp elements.
