"i bought 3 sets just to choose the one set i liked but all 3 sets were horrible. 2 sets were about 10mm barely and 1 set was 9mm and 9.5mm. Colors were yellowish which were very aweful and it had so much blemishes. I have never seen pearls this bad before so i'm really disappointed with this purchase. i guess that's what you get for only 200."

"The pearls are beautiful.....but,the backing would need to be replaced to properly support the weight and size....and I know, I would never get around to doing it.... and I would be heartsick to loose such a lovely pearl...sadly, they are going back today."

"These are fantastic value in salt water pearls. They look wonderful and have great presentation because of their size. One minor complaint, the butterfly backing is too small for the weight of the pearls.
Still love them though."

Fast Facts
| Once the price of pearls was so extravagant they caused wars and even funded a war, but today cultured pearls have made this “queen of gems” available to everyone. |
| Once, all pearls were only natural, most recovered from the Persian Gulf, occurring once in every 15,000 oysters. |
| Pearls form in the mollusk in a variety of shapes, including: round (spherical), off-round, semi-baroque, baroque, rice shaped, button or disk, and many fancy shapes created by the insertion of specially shaped nucleus beads. |
| Many royal families had an obsession with pearls. Some ancient Romans covered whole pieces of furniture in pearl, and in some monarchies only members of the royal were legally allowed to wear pearls. |
 When light touches the pearl, it travels through all the layers of nacre, and each tiny crystal reflects the light like miniature prisms. The end result? A lustrous, breathtaking pearl.

A pearl is a lustrous, organic gem produced by saltwater oysters, freshwater mussels and occasionally by some shellfish. It exhibits a range of colors from white to pink, silver, cream, peach, gold, green, blue and black. Oh Mohs’ scale of hardness, pearl is 2.5 – 4.5. Primary sources of Sea Pearls include Persian Gulf; Gulf of Manaar; along the coasts of Madagascar, Burma (Myanmar), and the Philippines; many islands in the South Pacific, northern Australia; and the coastal lines of Central and northern South America; and some small beds in Japan. Primary sources of freshwater Pearls include United States, some in Europe (restricted in Central Europe).
