Kohl’s sells some great simulated pearls, both as individual pieces as well as sets. The website describes its pearl jewelry as “classic.” After all, don’t pearls make you think of your grandparents heydays? This type of accessory goes back into antiquity. Bellatory says, “Early Chinese civilization considered black pearls a symbol of wisdom and believed they were formed within a dragon’s head. Once full-grown, the pearls were carried between the dragon’s teeth. According to this myth, one had to slay the dragon to gather the pearls. The ancient Japanese believed that pearls were created from the tears of mythical creatures, such as mermaids, nymphs, and angels.”
