Pearl Jewelry makes an excellent birthday gift, and is a memorable thing for anniversary gifts and graduation gifts. Pearl jewelry gifts are welcome in any season of the year. In fact, they are favorites of women of all age groups. Pearls have lot of varieties; you can choose the best pearl for yourself.

Freshwater Pearls

Freshwater pearl farming is done mainly in China, Japan and the US. They are farmed in rivers, lakes, and other freshwater sources. These pearls differ from saltwater pearls in one way that freshwater pearls are almost entirely made up of nacre - the substance that gives pearls their luster and longevity. Freshwater pearls have a special attraction, since they come in a wide range of colors. A very small quantity of metal is added to the water on a pearl farm, resulting in different colored freshwater pearls. Many of these colors cannot be found in saltwater pearls. Freshwater pearls can be found in almost any shape imaginable including round, drop, rice, button, oval, semi-round, and circle or ringed, baroque or semi-baroque.

Tahitian Pearls

Tahitian Pearls are also known as black pearls because they are cultivated in the black-tipped oyster. They are highly coveted around the world for their superior quality, large size, colors, mirror-like shine, and the rainbow play of light. Tahitian Pearls are the outcome of a precise combination of environmental and geological factors found nowhere else in the globe. Tahiti Pearls are collected from black-lipped pearl oysters living in Tahiti’s perfect waters; the precise skill of craftsmen plays an important role in care and harvest of the pearls.

Akoya Pearls

Akoya Pearls come from Japan, where they are cultured. Akoya looks very similar to the Freshwater pearl. When you compare both of them, the difference is clear. Akoya pearls are on average larger, smoother, rounder, and more lustrous than freshwater pearls. The luster of an Akoya pearl necklace and pearl earrings makes them the jewelry of choice for many brides-to-be. If you’re looking for a stunning gift, choose a gift of Akoya cultured pearl jewelry.

Right Way to choose Pearl Jewelry

In the glittering world of jewelry, pearls are gaining prominence in comparison to other types of jewelry. Before purchasing pearl necklace or earrings, it is very important to determine difference between fine quality pearls and average pearls. Quality of pearls depends upon factors such as luster, thickness & quality of nacre, surface quality, color, shape and size. If you are well aware of these factors, you can easily purchase pearl rings, pearl necklace, pearl pendants, pearl earrings, pearl stud earrings or pearl brooches for your loved ones at affordable prices.
