With any piece of jewelry purchased at Zhulia, the quality of the pearls as well as the craftsmanship of the jewelry is guaranteed.

All the Freshwater pearl jewelry pieces at Zhulia are each handmade. Julia, creator and owner of Zhulia, makes several trips to China and Asia each year and hand picks these pearls directly from selected vendors and farms. Once the raw pearls are chosen, they are used with the finest materials to create beautiful handcrafted pieces of jewelry.

All Freshwater pearls in white, cream, pink, peach, and lilac are natural occurring colors found in pearls. Other pearl colors - colors other than the natural occurring white, cream, pink, peach, and lilac – are colored using the safest and highest quality dyes. (For more information on Freshwater pearls, please refer to History of Pearls)

All imitation pearls are also made using the highest quality of glass and coating. (For more information on this topic, please refer to Imitation Pearls)

All Zhulia stone clasps are handmade using specially carved stones found in and around China. They are then wrapped by hand with sterling silver to create a unique clasp. Please note: Due to a natural process that is caused by oxidation, sterling silver can and may tarnish. Tarnish can be removed by rubbing the piece with a polishing cloth, which you can find at most jewelry stores.
