Freshwater Pearls

Freshwater pearls provide the best range of size, shape, and color for designers. They're grown inside of freshwater mussels. Because the final shape and nacre (luster) are left up to a more natural process, freshwater pearls get more expensive as the shape and luster get closer to perfect.
