Every jewelry created by Mikimoto including pearl cheap personalized necklaces, has an "M" stamped on its setting. This is a guarantee of quality. However, in some cases, the mark of "M" will only guarantee that the setting is genuine and not the pearls, which can be replaced and restrung.
You might also encounter pearl customizable best friend necklaces[visit] that are labeled 'Mikimoto quality'. This is misleading. These are not pearls produced under the patented Mikimoto process. True Mikimoto pearl personalized necklaces are those produced under stringent conditions in Honshu, Japan.
Or you can stick with straight Sterling, no gemstones, and find your dollar will go quite far. For the same amount of money you'll pay for a pair of, say, diamond stud earrings, you can probably buy your girl a completely new wardrobe of Sterling silver jewelry.
When you deciding on what kind of jewelry to buy, please take your girlfriend's style into consideration. If she runs around in pretty, feminine dresses and delicate clothes, a big, chunky hammered silver and turquoise bracelet probably won't go over well.
And if you know she hates dangling earrings, for Pete's sake, don't get her any! It doesn't matter if she wore dangling earrings one time and you loved it. She's got to love it. The gift is for her enjoyment, not yours.
