A genuine pearl string necklace is one of the most recognizable iconic pieces of classic jewelry in fashion history. Wearing pearls will add instant confidence to your appearance and are the most versatile gems to accessorize your wardrobe and individualize your style.
Freshwater pearls are typically found in lakes and rivers in China. In recent years, the quality of Freshwater pearls has improved immensely and has resulted in beautiful quality pearls that are cleaner, rounder, and more lustrous, available in Peach, Pink and White overtones. Due to their mass production, Cultured Freshwater pearls are also popular for their affordable price points. Freshwater pearl sizes typically range from 5mm to 10mm, though they are often available in larger sizes up to 13mm.
Akoya pearls are the world's best-known pearl since the 1930's. Akoya pearls are often very round and spherical in shape and are complemented by very high luster. In addition to white, you will find delicate hues such as rose, gray, gold, cream, and silver. Produced by a small oyster called the Pinctada Fucata off the seas of Japan and China, they are commonly found in sizes ranging from 2mm to 10mm in size. Akoya pearls are a long-time favorite in the pearl industry and are commonly worn by brides on their wedding day.
Golden South Sea pearls are cherished for their classic color as well as their exceptional sizes. These rare gems are produced by the Pinctada Maxima oyster, found in very deep and offshore waters. High quality Golden South Sea pearls are usually found in the Philippines and include a wide variation of shades of light to dark golden colors. Golden South Sea pearls are known to have one of the thickest nacre layers averaging between 2.0-4.0mm in thickness. Typical pearl size range is from 8mm to 15mm.
Tahitian pearls, also known as black South Sea pearls or simply black pearls are adored for their incredibly exotic colors and mirror-like luster. Tahitian pearls are not limited in color and consist of hundreds of overtones with rich vibrant multi-colors such as peacock green, silver green, blue, and eggplant, just to name a few. These pearls are produced by the Pinctada Margaritifera oyster, which is found exclusively in Tahiti and several other French Polynesian islands. Typical size range is from 8mm to 15mm.
White South Sea pearls are cherished for their classic color as well as their exceptional sizes. These rare gems are produced by the Pinctada Maxima oyster, found in very deep and offshore waters. White South Sea pearls are commonly found off the shores of Australia and are typically creamy white in color with a silver overtone. White South Sea pearls are known to have one of the thickest nacre layers averaging between 2.0-4.0mm in thickness. Typical pearl size range is from 8mm to 15mm.

With so many beautiful pearl strands to choose from, it is difficult to make up your mind. Keep in mind the person the pearls are for and then select the right type of pearls, shape, size, color, and length of your pearl necklace.
You don’t have to understand jewelry or look for the traditional meaning of a pearl necklace to know that it’s a great gift for a woman on almost any occasion. Whether you are shopping for pearls online for a momentous occasion such as a birthday or anniversary, or you want to give your favorite relative or hostess a pearl gift, say thank you to your bridesmaids, or to repay someone’s kindness, a pearl necklace will always be a suitable present. You don’t have to stick to just necklaces; Pearl Earrings, a Pearl Bracelet or , Pearl Pendant or Pearl Ring will be just as welcome.
The size and color of the stones affect the price of a pearl necklace, but the primary influence is the region where the pearls were grown. Freshwater cultured pearls from China are some of the most affordable pearls, but they certainly don’t look cheap because they cost less. At Pasha Pearls™, we offer only high-grade pearls that we rigorously select for their color, shape, luster, and quality. If you prefer something more luxurious, an Akoya Pearl Necklace is truly stunning, and nothing is as striking as the size and color of a Tahitian South Sea Pearl Necklace. Elegance is abundant in our White South Sea and Gold South Sea Necklace range. Some pearls are so exceptional that they are worth wearing on their own. Instead of a full strand, why not consider a Pearl Pendant Necklace?
The length of a pearl necklace is a matter of personal preference. Although traditional wisdom holds that a pearl choker is casual and long pearl strands more formal, you can select any length between 16” and 51” for your necklace. At Pasha Pearls™, you don’t only get to choose your pearl necklace length, but our pearl strands are also customizable with white/yellow gold, diamond studded clasps and standard silver clasps. Fastening a pearl necklace can be difficult. Consider adding a magnetic clasp to your pearl strand to make wearing it easier.
There are many online retailers selling pearl necklaces, but before you buy, you should make sure that you’re dealing with a company which offers high-quality pearls. Price and appearance don’t necessarily assure the value of a pearl strand; at Pasha Pearls™, a unique certificate of authenticity accompanies every pearl product you buy. To make sure our customers are delighted with their purchase, we also offer free UPS/FedEx secure shipping in a decorative black velvet gift box and a 60-day full money back guarantee.
