Girls Love Pearls

Great selection of all types of pearl jewellery together with various prices. Have purchased a number of items & sentimental restringing; always great service. Mark knows his work and most helpful. Lovely personal shopping.

Went to see Mark at Girls Love Pearls. He is simply the best. Mark is always friendly and professional and he always does his best to ensure his customers enjoy the beautiful pearls from his shop. Thanks Mark and I am enjoying my Akoya pearl ring 💍

The pearls at this business are exquisite and the customer service is excellent. I lost the pearl in my 22year old engagement ring &, Mark helped me choose a new pearl and then fit it to my ring. He certainly knows what he is doing - I highly recommend Girls Love Pearls

Mark did a wonderful job restringing an old pearl necklace. I wasn’t able to see it for a few months because I don’t live in Brisbane & had somebody else pick it up for me. The string looks great & the price was more than reasonable.

Mark at Girls Love Pearls is a gentleman and a really nice guy. He help us with restring pearls and cleaning, resizing 2 rings. They turned out stunning. End price was Lower than initially thought. Could not be happier with the outcome. Thanks again Mark, you made my wife a very happy lady. ( And put me in the good books 😉) Cheers Nathan

Mark has gone above and beyond for me on multiple occasions. From a custom engagement ring, to pearl earrings, to wedding bands for my partner and I - everything has been perfect. He’s even helped with valuing and testing some of our existing pieces, which was super helpful. What I really appreciate is how easy he makes the whole process, always keeping communication clear and simple whilst going the extra mile throughout the process. Honestly, I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Mark’s the best in the business

I came in with a few inherited items that I didn't know anything about. Mark was able to lend his expert eye to determine which items were authentic and which were costume jewellery. I was able to then narrow down which items were worth restoring. Mark cleaned and restrung two pearl necklaces and repaired and polished a silver bracelet. Very happy with the results and it was very affordable. Much appreciated.

Fabulous service! Walked in (with no appointment) wanting a valuation of a gold bracelet. Mark was lovely, friendly, informative and welcoming. Provided the valuation/ certificate within a week and then explained all about the bracelet on collection. Would absolutely recommend and will definitely be back to have a few more pieces valued. Thank you for making us feel welcomed!

Whilst walking through the gallery level of Brisbane Arcade recently, I noticed the boutique Girls Love Pearls. Pfffffft, I thought. Girls don't love pearls. Girls love puppies and dresses and new shoes and musicals. Old ladies love pearls. Intrigued, I stepped inside. I don't know the first thing about pearls, but from what I learnt when eaves dropping over the conversation the salesman was having with a prospective customer, I found out a number of things: 1) They are expensive 2) They are difficult to acquire 3) They are timeless, often heirlooms and synonymous with class and elegance Learning these things were enough for me to decide on the spot that I would like some. So there you go people, girls actually do love pearls. They just have to know how unattainable they are first.

Terrible quality. My husband purchased 2 different sets of pearlstud earrings and they had flaws all through them- although he was told otherwise. The gentleman told my husband that they were flawless - and with the lighting in the store my husband couldn't tell that they were far from flawless. It was not until he arrived home and saw them in daylight that he discovered their flaws. Whilst the store owner was happy to exchange or refund, we were disappointed to be told twice by him, that these pearls were flawless (clean surface). Rather, they had noticeable dents in them - the second pair being much worse than the first. This was suppose to be a birthday present to me from my husband. Also he is a very small operation - he went on holidays and shut the store, and so we could not return the dented pearl studs, that he told us were flawless for nearly a week. He is also not open on Sundays or Monday and my husband then went in to the store to return the second set of pearls (that were again terribly flawed and worse than the first pair of pearls) to only find that he was shut on a Monday. My husband had to make numerous trips back and forth from the store to our home to exchange their pearls during his lunchtime at work, and had to stay back after work to make up for the time he lost with all of the running around that this store caused. It wasn't an easy task to find a decent pair of pearls at that store between the price range of $600-$1200. My husband did not end up purchasing any of the pearls. The only response the owner had was when we can afford to pay $1200+ then he may be able to help us find a pair of suitable pearls - flawless. Yet I reiterate, he originally he told us from the beginning the pearls he sold us were flawless! So it doesn't seem to make sense that he would sell us "flawless" pearls - only for us to later discover they were not - and then he admits he has another pair that are flawless - but they are indeed not. And then he basically says it is only if we have more money to spend that he can then help us find a suitable pair of earrings. Why couldn't he then just say that from the onset if this was the case?
