This guide explains natural versus cultured and artificial pearls, how nacre provides luster, and how to judge quality. It notes history, rarity, and farming practices, and emphasizes that size is not the sole measure of value.
You can buy cultured pearls at many prices and the value of an individual pearl remains relatively stable. Price differences usually reflect dealer costs and mark ups. Rose offers a range: strand $19.95, 14K gold ring $20, earrings $10, bracelets $50, pins $20, pendants $10, all aiming for value.
The guide defines millimeter diameter to inches conversion for pearls, explains round and Baroque shapes, describes Moahe pearls with flat sides, and lists strand types from Telco to graduated, chokers, and common necklace lengths including Princess Matinee and Opera.
