Hi, on island now, looking for pearl earrings, Ballerina is our regular store for gems, but I don't remember seeing pearls there
Any stores that specialize in pearls?
Thanks

There's a vendor in the Marigot marketplace that has a lot of very unique pearl jewelry.

There is a store in Philipsburg that is mostly just pearls. As you go down Frontstreet it is about four stores down past the courthouse on the right. They have been in business for many many years.

Three different friends of mine have bought various pieces of pearl jewelry at Caribbean Gems and been happy with their purchases.

I purchased my Mikimoto pieces at Artistic Jewelers on Front Street.

I second the vote for Pearl Gems, bought some black ones there a few years ago & still get Christmas cards from them. Need to shop there again this year!
Any thoughts on where to buy gold chains, I am tired of the rope type & looking for something different!

Pearl Gems YES! I had a mental block on the name earlier. Great quality stuff and a long history on Front Street.
