We import all our Freshwater Pearls direct from the Chinese pearl farmers which is why we're able to keep our prices so low.

Pearl styles sold on this page often are limited stock. Since pearls are a "natural product", some styles and colors will be available only in limited amounts and may not be available again. It is best to purchase all the strands that you need for a particular project all at once.

Pearl Grading

The majority of the pearls we sell are A or B grade. The fewer blemishes a pearl has, the more valuable it is. Blemishes are marks, lines, bumps or little pot holes which, in reality, give each strand its unique identifying factors.

To find pearls without blemishes is rare (AAA grade) and their price is likely to be expensive (for perfectly round pearls with no blemishings you're likely to pay in excess of £100 per strand). Pearls are organically grown and just like the human body, no two are exactly alike. Think of blemishes on pearls as moles or fingerprints!
