CIRO PEARLS

Ciro Pearls – which was first registered in 1917 – was originally a mail order company. One cut out forms from a newspaper and sent it to Ciro. They opened their first store – on Bond Street in central London in 1920. The produced the world’s first cultured pearl in 1917. In 1970 they invented the ‘Cirolit’ a triple A classified cubic zirconia. In the 1990s Ciro had more than 150 stores worldwide. They are still a leading producer of high end imitation jewellery with a wide range of prices. They have a shop in London’s Burlington Arcade. I have always loved Ciro jewellery – particularly the faux pearl items and try to have some examples in my shop. The quality is so good.
