Colors, Sizes, and Styles for Every Design
At Beads of Cambay, we cut and source each strand with real care, so you get coin pearl beads with character and consistency. You'll find a genuine spread of choices here, from creamy white and soft off-white to silver, sage green, rustic orange, and that gorgeous peacock with a playful tail. Sizes run from petite 9mm coins all the way up to bold 16-20mm statement pieces, so whether you're after delicate everyday designs or a true centerpiece, there's a coin pearl waiting for you.
Because these pearls are side-drilled, they sit flat and lie flush against the skin, which makes them a dream for strung necklaces, layered bracelets, and dangle earrings. We also offer single focal pearls and bezel-set connectors in vermeil, silver, and black gold if you want a ready-made hero for your piece. Each freshwater pearl carries the slight, natural variation that tells everyone it's the real thing, never plastic, never mass-produced sameness.
Pair our coin pearls with gemstone beads, metal spacers, or hand-wrapped chain to build something that feels entirely your own. They suit bridal jewelry, gifts, and pieces you'll reach for again and again. Browse the full range, find your favorite color and size, and start designing today.
Coin Pearls - Frequently Asked Questions
What Exactly Is A Coin Pearl?
A coin pearl is a freshwater pearl that's been cultured into a flat, round, coin-like shape. We love them because that wide, smooth face gives you maximum luster and surface area, so your finished jewelry really catches the eye.
How Should I Drill or String Your Coin Pearls?
Most of our coin pearls come side-drilled, meaning the hole runs across the top so the pearl hangs flat. You can string them straight onto beading wire or silk, or use them as drops. If you need a specific drill direction for a design, just check the product details before you buy.
Are These Real Freshwater Pearls?
Yes, every coin pearl we offer is a genuine cultured freshwater pearl. You'll notice tiny natural variations in shape, color, and surface, and that's exactly what proves they're authentic rather than imitation.
How Do I Care for My Coin Pearls?
Treat them gently. Put your pearls on after perfume and hairspray, wipe them with a soft, slightly damp cloth after wearing them, and store them away from harder gemstones to keep the surface scratch-free. With a little care, your pieces will keep their glow for years.
