Natural Saltwater Pearls

Genuine • Natural • Certified

Natural Saltwater Pearls are some of the world's most highly valued and rarest types of pearls. They are formed inside oysters or other mollusks that live in the ocean, and they develop over many years as the mollusk deposits layers of nacre around an irritant such as a piece of grit. Natural saltwater pearls are highly prized for their unique colors, shapes, and luster, which can vary depending on the type of mollusk that produced them and the conditions in which they formed. The rarity of natural saltwater pearls has made them highly sought after by collectors and connoisseurs, and they are often used in high-end jewelry designs. However, the demand for natural saltwater pearls has led to overfishing and the depletion of oyster populations, which has made these pearls even more rare and more expensive in recent years. Today, most pearls on the market are cultured rather than natural, and they are produced by inserting a small bead or piece of tissue into an oyster or mussel to stimulate pearl growth.
