The Pearl Show
The V&A Museum, England invites you to experience the beauty and allure of pearls which over the centuries have long been associated with wealth, royalty, and glamour. The exhibition runs from September 2013-January 2014 and looks at pearls from the early Roman Empire through to present day. This blog post by US-based Marl-M reviews some of the pieces on display.
