Material:
Rice shaped Seawater Cultured Pearls, a wonderful champagne coloured lustre, top drilled. Priced per 16 inch strand.

Natural Pearls versus Cultured Pearls
natural pearls are extremely rare and exceedingly expensive. Beware of any affordable pearls you see for sale that are labeled "natural." They may have natural color, but they most certainly were cultured by humans.

Sea Pearls versus Freshwater Pearls
Pearls cultured in seawater have better luster and, usually, more consistent shape and smoother texture than freshwater pearls - however, sea pearls are much more expensive than freshwater pearls. Some higher quality freshwater pearls have nicely consistent shapes and relatively smooth surfaces, but their luster is not as deep and iridescent.
