Strand Kundan White
Pearls and the famous girls
A young princess’s best friend
Members of royal and aristocrat families have been well-documented in their extensive use of pearl jewelry. But the royalty who stands out the most for her great indulgence in pearls is Princess Diana. From ball-nights and formal political dinners to public appearances, the princess was often seen gracefully sporting a beautiful pearl choker complementing her evening gown or elegant strands of pearls matching a cool suit dress. The innocent beauty of the young princess was always well-reflected in her choice of jewelry.
An affectionate gift to the queen of beauty
Pearls jewelry has always been a favorite amongst the young and not so young Hollywood actresses. A great example of this is Elizabeth Taylor, the classic beauty of our memories. She was gifted a stunning pear shaped pearl famously known as La Peregrina on her birthday by her loving husband. Four decades later, the story of this gift and how affectionately Elizabeth flaunted it is as famed as the history of La Peregrina itself.
The choice of an inspiring public figure
A much loved member of the American “royalty” not belonging to Hollywood but coming from the White house is Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis who showed a refined sense of fashion while wearing a simple strand of pearls on her wedding with John F. Kennedy. She never wore much jewelry and whatever she chose was to mirror her personality – exquisite, elegant and never glitzy.
Another such personality from the recent times is First-Lady Michelle Obama, frequently spotted wearing either Akoya or large white South Sea Pearl necklaces.
Chosen accessory of powerful women
High-profile women from the world of business, society, and politics right from Oprah Winfrey to Hillary Clinton to Indra Nooyi have all recognize how powerful and flattering pearls are today. And this is plainly evident in their dressing for all public appearances. As pearls not only add a subtle charm but also bring a warm elegance to the wearer’s personality.
An R&B diva’s bold fashion statement
This youth icon took a completely fresh take on how to wear pearls when she appeared on the red carpet in London premier. With overflowing strands of pearls of all shapes and sizes, she displayed her creative style, taking fashion jewelry to a whole new level of glamour.

The Genetic Strand $16.99 The Genetic Strand is the story of a writer’s investigation, using DNA science, into the tale of his family’s origins. National Book Award winner Edward Ball has turned his probing gaze on the microcosm of the human genome, and not just any human genome — that of his slave-holding ancestors. What is the legacy of such a family history, and can DNA say something about it? In 2000, after a decade in New York City, Ball bought a house in Charleston, South Carolina, home to his father’s family for generations, and furnished it with heirloom pieces from his relatives. In one old desk he was startled to discover a secret drawer, sealed perhaps since the Civil War, in which someone had hidden a trove of family hair, with each lock of hair labeled and dated. The strange find propelled him to investigate: what might DNA science reveal about the people — Ball’s family members, long dead — to whom the hair had belonged? Did the hair come from white relatives, as family tradition insisted? How can genetic tests explain personal identity? Part crime-scene investigation, part genealogical romp, The Genetic Strand is a personal odyssey into DNA and family history. The story takes the reader into forensics labs where technicians screen remains, using genetics breakthroughs like DNA fingerprinting, and into rooms where fathers nervously await paternity test results. It also summons the writer¹s entertaining and idiosyncratic family, such as Ball¹s antebellum predecessor, Aunt Betsy, who published nutty books on good Southern society; Kate Fuller, the enigmatic ancestor who may have introduced African genes into the Ball family pool; and the author¹s first cousin Catherine, very much alive, who donates a cheek swab from a mouth more attuned to sweet iced tea than DNA sampling. Writing gracefully but pacing his story like an old-fashioned whodunit, Edward Ball tracks genes shared across generations, adding suspense and personal meaning to what the scientists and Nobel laureates tell us. A beguiling DNA tale, The Genetic Strand reaches toward a new form of writing‹the genetic memoir. |
