Some jewellery quietly becomes part of a woman's signature style. The Harlow Earrings are chosen by women who appreciate graceful details, effortless sophistication, and jewellery that reflects warmth and confidence to both everyday moments and life's memorable celebrations.

Exceptional Materials

Cream Swarovski® Crystal Pearls introduce a beautifully soft lustre that reflects light with beautiful depth, while honey opal gemstones contribute gentle golden tones that feel warm, natural, and quietly radiant. Together they create a harmonious palette that complements both timeless neutrals and richer seasonal colours with effortless elegance.

At the centre of each earring, a polished 14K gold heart creates a subtle sculptural focal point that echoes the thoughtful design language of the Harlow Collection. Suspended from comfortable 14K gold ear wires, every element is selected for lasting beauty, graceful balance, and everyday wearability.

Refined Design & Presence

Designed with graceful movement and carefully balanced proportions, the Harlow Earrings frame the face with a softly elongated silhouette that feels feminine without appearing overstated. The combination of smooth pearls, softly glowing gemstones, and polished gold accents creates visual rhythm while allowing each material to complement the others naturally.

Lightweight and thoughtfully proportioned, the Harlow Earrings remain comfortable throughout the day while their warm gold palette introduces an inviting softness that feels equally polished in professional and social settings.

Timeless Versatility & Lifestyle

Whether worn to client meetings, anniversary dinners, wine tastings, or intimate celebrations, the Harlow Earrings bring quiet sophistication to every occasion. Their warm neutral palette pairs beautifully with ivory, camel, navy, charcoal, and classic black, making them an effortless finishing touch for every season.

Paired with the matching Harlow Gold Stretch Bracelet, they become a graceful expression of warmth, femininity, and timeless personal style, creating a beautifully balanced look that moves naturally from everyday refinement to life's special occasions.

Handcrafted in Canada

Handcrafted in Canada in small batches, the Harlow Earrings reflect Carabella by Cheryl's commitment to thoughtful craftsmanship, refined detailing, and enduring quality.

Beautiful craftsmanship rarely asks for attention. Instead, it reveals itself through thoughtful detail, exceptional artistry, and timeless design. Women who choose the Peony Bracelet appreciate jewellery that reflects their individuality with quiet confidence rather than following passing trends.

Exceptional Materials

At the heart of the Peony Bracelet are beautifully handcrafted 12 mm Murano glass floral beads, individually hand-blown and delicately painted by skilled Venetian artisans using traditional glassmaking techniques. Every Murano glass flower reflects generations of Venetian craftsmanship, with subtle variations in colour, detail, and character ensuring that no two bracelets are ever exactly alike. Luminous 8 mm Swarovski® Crystal Pearls introduce soft lustre and refined balance, while sterling silver bead caps provide elegant finishing touches that complete the bracelet with timeless sophistication.

Refined Design & Presence

The Peony Bracelet celebrates artistry through thoughtful balance and proportion. Hand-blown Murano glass floral beads create graceful focal points, while luminous Swarovski® Crystal Pearls soften the composition with understated elegance. Expressive colour, delicate floral detail, and refined materials work in harmony to create a bracelet that feels distinctive without overwhelming. The result is a bracelet that feels expressive without excess, becoming a graceful reflection of personal style, creativity, and quiet confidence.

Timeless Versatility & Lifestyle

Whether accompanying an afternoon at an art gallery, lunch with friends, a weekend getaway, or an elegant evening celebration, the Peony Bracelet transitions effortlessly through every occasion. Its artistic character and refined colour palette complement both relaxed and elevated styling, becoming a signature piece for women who appreciate craftsmanship, individuality, and jewellery with enduring character.

Handcrafted in Canada

Every Peony Bracelet is individually assembled by hand in Canada in small batches, allowing exceptional attention to every detail. From the individually hand-blown Murano glass flowers to the thoughtful finishing of every component, each bracelet reflects the patience, precision and artistry that define every Carabella by Cheryl creation. Created to be worn, treasured, and admired for years to come, it is a lasting expression of artisan luxury and refined individuality.

Your Guide to Pearl Jewellery

Pearls have endured across generations because they possess a rare ability to feel both familiar and continually new. Their soft lustre brings natural refinement to jewellery, while differences in pearl type, colour, scale, and surrounding materials can give each design an entirely different character.

At Carabella by Cheryl, pearl jewellery isn't limited to a single interpretation. Swarovski® Crystal Pearls offer beautiful consistency and a luminous finish, freshwater pearls bring organic variation and natural character, and Mother of Pearl introduces its own subtle iridescence. Combined with sterling and fine silver, warm gold accents, gemstones, crystals, or artisan glass, these materials allow pearls to move easily from timeless simplicity to more expressive design.

Understanding Different Pearl Materials

Not every pearl used in jewellery is the same, and understanding those differences can help you choose a piece that speaks to your personal style.

Freshwater pearls are cultured within freshwater molluscs and are appreciated for their natural beauty and subtle variations in shape, surface, and lustre. These individual characteristics give each pearl—and the jewellery created with it—a distinctive organic quality.

Swarovski® Crystal Pearls are precision-made simulated pearls created with a crystal core and pearl coating. Their consistency in size, colour, and finish makes them particularly suited to balanced designs where proportion and repetition are important.

Mother of Pearl comes from the luminous inner layer of certain mollusc shells. Rather than forming as a pearl, it is shaped and polished into jewellery components that reveal delicate variations in colour and iridescence.

Each offers something different. The choice isn't simply about which is better, but about the character and design that feel most naturally suited to you.

Choosing Pearl Jewellery for Your Style

The beauty of pearl jewellery lies in its versatility.

Pearl earrings can provide a subtle point of light near the face, from understated everyday styles to longer drops with greater movement and presence. Pearl bracelets introduce softness and texture at the wrist and can be worn as a single refined accent or layered with complementary metals and materials. Pearl necklaces can create anything from a delicate finishing detail to a more expressive focal point.

Colour and scale also influence how a piece feels. Cream and white pearls offer timeless versatility, while deeper tones and contrasting colours can feel more contemporary. Smaller pearls tend to create delicacy and subtle texture; larger pearls naturally make a stronger visual statement.

There is no single formula for choosing the right pearl jewellery. The most successful piece is often simply the one that feels most natural when you wear it.

Pearls Beyond the Traditional Strand

While a classic strand of pearls will always have enduring appeal, contemporary pearl jewellery offers far more possibilities.

Pairing pearls with gold can introduce warmth, while sterling or fine silver creates a cooler, more understated character. Gemstones add natural colour and individuality, and artisan glass can bring unexpected artistry and expression to a design.

These combinations allow pearls to remain recognizably timeless without feeling predictable. They also make it easier to incorporate pearl jewellery into an existing wardrobe rather than reserving it for formal occasions.

Building a Pearl Jewellery Wardrobe

A pearl jewellery collection doesn't need to begin with a matching set.

You might start with a pair of earrings that works effortlessly with what you already wear, add a bracelet that introduces a different texture or metal, and later choose a necklace with greater presence. Pieces can coordinate through pearl tone, metal, colour, or simply a shared sense of style without matching exactly.

Over time, this creates a jewellery wardrobe that feels collected and personal—one that can move naturally between everyday moments, professional settings, travel, dinners, celebrations, and occasions worth remembering.

The enduring beauty of pearls lies not only in tradition, but in their ability to evolve with the woman wearing them. Whether your style is understated, artistic, contemporary, or somewhere in between, pearl jewellery offers room to make that timeless beauty entirely your own.

About Our Pearl Jewellery

The Pearl Collection features several distinctive pearl materials, including Swarovski® Crystal Pearls, genuine freshwater pearls, and Mother of Pearl. Individual designs may also incorporate sterling or fine silver, gold-filled or gold-plated components, gemstones, crystals, and artisan glass. The materials used in each piece are identified on its individual product page.

Yes. Carabella pearl jewellery is individually handcrafted in Canada by designer Cheryl Borisenko. Each piece is thoughtfully assembled with careful attention to proportion, balance, comfort, and finishing details, and many designs are created in limited quantities.

Freshwater pearls are cultured pearls formed within freshwater molluscs and are valued for their natural variations in shape, surface, and lustre. Swarovski® Crystal Pearls are precision-made simulated pearls created with a crystal core and pearl coating, giving them exceptional consistency in shape, colour, and finish. Both offer distinctive beauty and are selected according to the character of each Carabella design.

Consider the scale, colour, materials, and overall character of the piece. Classic cream pearls offer timeless versatility, while designs incorporating gemstones, contrasting pearl tones, precious-metal accents, or artisan glass can create a more individual look. Pearl earrings provide an effortless finishing detail, bracelets are beautiful worn alone or layered, and necklaces can range from subtle accents to expressive focal pieces.

Many Carabella pearl designs transition beautifully from everyday wear to special occasions. Because care requirements vary by pearl type and by the other materials used in a design, we recommend avoiding prolonged exposure to water, perfume, hairspray, lotions, household chemicals, and abrasive surfaces. Always review the materials and care recommendations for your individual piece.

After wearing your pearl jewellery, gently wipe it with a clean, soft cloth to remove oils and residue. Store pieces separately from harder jewellery to help prevent scratching, and avoid prolonged moisture, perfume, hairspray, lotions, household chemicals, and abrasive cleaners.
