About Pearls
Pearls are the only gemstones that are created by living creatures. An oyster will secrete a layer of nacre around a foreign object that invades its shell. Over time, this nacre builds up and forms a pearl. This process can take years, which is why pearls are so rare and expensive. The finest pearls often come from saltwater oysters, and they can sell for tens of thousands of dollars per piece.
Pearls can also be found in a wide variety of shapes, including round, oval, baroque, and teardrop.
The quality of a pearl is determined by its luster, color, size, shape, and surface quality. The finest pearls have a high luster, are perfectly round, and have a smooth surface.
