Pearl jewelry has been for years, one of the most coveted and guarded personal items a person can have. Its simplicity and sheen truly makes it a jewel one that marks the sign of good taste and wealth. When we think of a pearl, generally we think of a small white ball. Which is not the thinking of many different types of pearls and colors available.

Knowing the different types and their differences can help to gain an understanding of pearls and help to make the best choice in pearl jewelry that fits your specific needs and even your wallet.

The most common pearl Most people are aware are freshwater pearls. Water Pearls sweet is exactly what it seems. They come from freshwater mussels located in lakes and rivers. Today, China is the largest exporter of fresh water pearls, with the majority of pearl farming taking place about 300 miles outside of Shanghai. Recently, however, Chinese pearl farmers have switched their focus from quantity of freshwater pearls for quality. This guarantees that the pearls are exported to the best conditions and the beauty.

Freshwater pearls range in size from 4mm to 11 mm. The majority is oval, button and coin form. Unlike saltwater pearls are not quite a perfect circle. The colors range from white, cream, gold, peach, pink and purple. Some may also have a rose and / or a tone of green on it. Freshwater pearls generally do not have the same intense luster than the Akoya pearls, but still have an excellent sheen to them. This and the large oval shapes are available, tends to render soft pearl jewelry less expensive than other types, and thus very popular. Freshwater pearls have thick nacre, however, which makes them more durable against cuts and general wear and tear.

Akoya pearls are considered to have the best luster of all types of pearls. Saltwater pearls, they are derived from the Akoya oyster, which is the smallest of the pearl oysters. Therefore, Akoya pearls tend to be the smallest of pearls. Sizes range from 2mm to 10mm, but on average, there is an Akoya Pearl, which is 6 millimeters to 7 millimeters.

Akoya pearls are closer to being a perfect sphere than other pearls. On average, are 70% to 80% round or nearly round. The rest tend to be semi-baroque and baroque. The surface of Akoya varies from a clean surface or a slightly to moderately defective, and the nacre can be thick, medium or thin. Again, the thicker the nacre of Pearl, the most lasting will be. Akoya range in a variety of natural colors including white, cream, some yellow, pink and blue. Some may also have a pink or green Overtone well.

International Tahitian Pearls were first introduced recently, in mid-1970. Cultivated by black lipped oysters, it is important to know that one is a pearl Tahitian Pearl only if it is caught in Polynesia. Black-lipped oysters tend to be large, with some weighing as much as 10 pounds! Then they can be gems abnormally large as well. However, on average, Tahitian Pearls are usually 9 to 10 mm and can extend anywhere from 8 to 14 millimeters. Tahitian Pearls are usually white, that some are. However, most are a deep gray or green that seems to be black. Other colors include blue, peacock, aubergine and pistachio. The luster of the pearl can be very beautiful in the dark shades of color in Tahitian Pearls. The shape of the pearl is divided between more round or nearly round and semi-baroque and baroque. The last 20% of the beads have a generally oval, button or drop-shaped them.

Then, depending on the surface, this affects the quality and price of your Tahitian Pearl jewelry. These types also with a thick nacre, which makes them strong against other nicks and wear.

Finally, we have South Sea Pearls. South Sea Pearls come from everywhere on the coasts of Australia, Indonesia and the Philippines. In general, 60% of your South Sea pearls from Australia will be.

The shape of it tends to be oval, button-shaped or drop from 40 to 60% of the time. However, you can find a variety of baroque or round pearls. South Sea Pearl jewelry tends to be somewhat 'because of pricier of its unique characteristics. The luster of the pearl tends to look more satin and has a distinct shine. The surface of the pearl is also quite good, of course, with a range from clean to slightly blemished. In addition, South Sea Pearls come in colors that are not common in other types of beads, including gold, silver and white.
