The Introduction to Pearls

Whether natural pearls or modern cultured pearls, the pearl is a gemstone that has probably always been treasured, and it comes in a wide range of colors. The colors we know best are white and cream (light fawn). Black, gray, and silver pearls are also common, but there is a pearl in almost every color. The primary color (body color) of a pearl is often altered by additional colors (overtones), which are often pink (sometimes called rosé), green, purple, or blue. Some pearls display an iridescence, a phenomenon known as orient.

Cultured pearls are often used in necklaces and bracelets, or set in single-stone rings, pairs or clusters of earrings, rings, or pendants.

How to make your unique jewelry with pearls?
