Pearl Jewelry

Pearls come in several varieties, including Akoya, South Sea, Tahitian, and freshwater pearls. Each type is distinguished by its origin, size, color, and luster.

Pearls are found in a range of colors, including white, cream, pink, silver, gold, blue, green, and black. The color depends on the type of mollusk and the environment in which the pearl forms.

The value of a pearl is determined by factors such as size, luster, color, shape, and surface quality. Larger pearls with high luster and minimal blemishes are generally more valuable.

Pearls are composed of layers of nacre, making them softer than most gemstones. They can be easily scratched, damaged by chemicals, or lose their luster if not cared for properly.
