Why Choose Freshwater Pearls Over Other Kinds?

Freshwater pearls stand out for their affordability and durability, making them a wise choice for both beginners and seasoned jewelry lovers. Unlike saltwater pearls, which are typically more expensive and limited in color, freshwater pearls offer a broad spectrum of hues and shapes. They can be used to create both classic and modern designs, and their sturdy nacre guarantees that your jewelry will continue to look stunning for many years to come. With Beads of Cambay, you get access to genuine freshwater pearl strands that are carefully matched for quality and consistency.

Which Country Do Freshwater Pearls Originate From?

Nowadays, China is where the majority of freshwater pearls are grown. In fact, quality freshwater pearls are being produced there through advanced farming techniques. China is the current marketplace leader of freshwater pearls, both in terms of quantity and variety, which were once famous in Japan’s Lake Biwa. You’ll also discover unique freshwater pearls from the United States, specifically Tennessee, where local mussels cultivate these gems. Freshwater pearls are perfect, and the supplier or manufacturer does not matter, so you get the best offerings!

What Are the Types of Freshwater Pearl Colors?

Freshwater pearls come in a fantastic variety of natural colors. Classic white, cream, pink, peach, and lavender are popular hues, but you’ll also find funky metallics and even dyed black freshwater pearls with bright “peacock” overtones. These days, freshwater pearl jewelry frequently comes in a variety of hues, including pink, peach, white, and lavender. Created with a playful and full effect in mind, this jewelry also appears multi-colored, but a blended flavor is used rather than a discrete one. Our freshwater pearl collection offers something for everyone, from understated elegance to striking statements. 

What Are Pearl Shapes?

Pearls come in a range of shapes, all of which have their own appeal. One shape that has so much value is the baroque shape. Round and semi-round freshwater pearls are the most desirable due to their classic appearance. Drop pearls have elongated shapes, while baroque pearls are irregular and artistic. Circle baroque pearls are typically used for statement pieces and come with rings. At Beads of Cambay, we have all sorts of shapes for freshwater pearls, and you will most certainly find what you need here!

How Pearl Girls Wear Their Freshwater Pearl Jewelry?

Freshwater pearl jewelry is being reinvented by contemporary women. Not that they are opting for freshwater pearls only. Wear delicate pearl necklaces with multiple gold chains for a comfy look. You can also wear them with stacked pearl necklaces and hoop earrings for a bolder effect. Those who love minimalism can easily choose a necklace of one shiny pearl paired with pearl hoops. If your heart goes more with silver, get some freshwater pearls mixed with silver chain and huggies. Our pearls make fabulous jewelry to wear to parties. Or wear them whenever you want to keep it casual.

What Freshwater Pearl Sizes Are Available?

Freshwater pearls come in various sizes, from little seed pearls that are less than 3mm to impressive gemstones that go over 12mm. Most people opt for necklaces and earrings in pearl sizes between 6 and 9.5mm. Bigger freshwater pearls, such as our 13-14mm Mauve Coin Freshwater Pearls, create a dramatic impact for special occasions. We have a size to match your style, whatever your preference may be.

How Rare Are Freshwater Pearls?

Today's freshwater pearls are mostly cultured. This means they are grown with the help of man. This helps create beautiful and durable freshwater pearls at a more affordable price. At Beads of Cambay, we choose each strand of ours with care, so that you receive genuine freshwater pearls of quality.

Are Freshwater Pearls Durable?

Yes, freshwater pearls are durable, but they are softer than a lot of gemstones. Whoa! If you take good care of your freshwater pearl jewelry, it can last for generations. Thanks to their strong nacre and careful cultivation, these are able to withstand daily wear. Further, harsh chemicals should be avoided, and they should also be stored separately to prevent scratches.

How Do I Care for Freshwater Pearl Jewelry?

Putting your freshwater pearl jewelry in a jewelry box away from other jewelry helps avoid scratching. Steer clear of hairspray, perfumes, and other potent chemicals. Pearls should be cleaned with a gentle, dry cloth after wearing. When dressing, try to put your pearls on last, and when undressing, take them off first. This will minimize their exposure.

How Can I Tell the Quality of Freshwater Pearl Jewelry?

Freshwater pearl jewelry is judged on luster, surface quality, shape, and color uniformity. Freshwater pearls that are high-quality have mirror-like luster, smooth surfaces, and matching color all along the strand. At Beads of Cambay, we offer a wide range of pearls. We offer AA, AAA, AAAA graded freshwater pearls, which are all manually inspected.
