California-based jewellery firm PearlParadise has been chosen to provide one of the gifts for this year's Oscars.

The online jewellery site has provided items for the awards ceremony in the past and this year will donate an 18-inch baroque Tahitian pearl necklace for official recipients.

Each pearl on the necklace is individually double knotted on black silk and the item also features a solid 14 carat white gold ball.

Jeremy Shepherd CEO of PearlParadise.com, commented: "We are very excited to participate in the 77th Academy Awards(R) Presenters Gift Basket."

The Oscars are due to take place on Sunday February 27th this year.

According to Mr Shepherd he saw the pearls in Tahiti and immediately "knew they would be the perfect gift for Hollywood's highest achievers".

"I'm very happy that our pearls will add a little more glamour to what is already the world's most glamorous night," he added.

The necklace is valued at $3,200.
