Our latest strand of cultured pearls is 24" long and consists of freshwater cultured pearls ranging in diameter from 7mm to 6.5mm. The luster is good, giving it a beautiful, polished look. The blemishes are minor and difficult to see.
Cultured pearls can seem to be a bit confusing. Natural pearls are rarely seen on the market today. The process of cultivating pearls was first developed in 1893. Cultured pearls are your only option when shopping for pearls.
However, there are two options for cultured pearls: freshwater or saltwater. Today, freshwater cultured pearls are the most popular due to their lower cost. A freshwater pearl can be cultivated in about 3-4 months, vs. saltwater pearls, which take 2-3 years. The overall quality between the two is close, but saltwater pearls are generally better quality. Saltwater pearls are referred to as Akoya.
We carry a full selection of cultured pearl strands, earrings, and bracelets. We can also show you the various differences in qualities and how they influence the price of each. We welcome your visit to our showroom in the Riverplace Tower in Jacksonville, FL.
