The Finest of Pearls is a Rare Gem
By Joan C. Miller

At The Finest of Pearls, pearl jewelry is an affordable luxury for most women. Whether you desire very affordable and unique pearl pieces, more traditional and classic selections, or the very best and rare New Zealand or Mexican pearls from the Sea of Cortez, The Finest of Pearls offers customers many beautiful choices in a wide price range.

Customer satisfaction is top priority to owner Rhonda Kaufman. Born in Manitoba, Canada, and raised in Newfoundland, Canada, Rhonda’s fascination with pearls began when she received her first strand of pearls at eight years old. She has been researching them ever since. A Las Vegas resident since 1981, Rhonda offers distinctive high class pearl jewelry to customers.

The Finest of Pearls is new to Las Vegas. The company consists of two divisions: The Finest of Pearls and the Affordable Luxury of Pearls. Clients are presented with a full spectrum of creative and unusual jewelry within their desired price range.

At The Affordable Luxury of Pearls, many striking pearl collars, pearl sets and matching pieces are available for less than $250. All items are genuine top quality cultured pearls. The philosophy of this division is that pearls of beauty are often overlooked by the traditional methods of classification which emphasizes shape (round), location (Japan and Tahiti), and saltwater environment to determine which pearls are of the highest value. An artisan’s skill of utilizing unique settings and selecting complementary materials will further enhance the beauty of these pearls.

Traditionally, pearls have been sold only with other pearls. By combining high luster pearls with enhancing materials such as gems and semi-precious stones, many beautiful pearls become affordable to most women.

Some of the different styles of pearls at The Affordable Luxury of Pearls include nugget pearls, button pearls, smaller pearls in designs such as pearl collars, freshwater pearls, keishi pearls and baroque pearls. Pearls are available in a wide range of shades. Gems such as garnet, onyx, crystals and turquoise are combined with pearls, resulting in beautiful arrangements. There is such a stunning assortment of colors, shapes and styles, that the collection must be viewed to be appreciated.

The Finest of Pearls showcases pearl jewelry of high quality, unique design and rare beauty. For those who can afford it, the company features
gorgeous traditional Akoya pearls from Japan and high quality saltwater Tahitian and South Sea pearls. A spectacular multi-hued rainbow of colors is present in each individual pearl.
