There are many factors you must consider when you buy a pearl necklace from Ramsey Gemstones or any other jeweler. These factors include freshwater and cultures, nacre, luster and surface, the color, size, shape, and finding matching pearls. When you know what to look for in pearls you will be able to find the nicest necklaces you can.
When you buy pearls from www.ramseygemstones.com your satisfaction with all of the qualities you look for in a fine pearl necklace is guaranteed. You should know the difference in terminology when it comes to pearls so you know what you are buying. For instance, freshwater cultured pearls are from oysters raised in farms and are grown in rivers and lakes. These can come in different colors and shapes. Because these pearls are farm raised they are much less expensive than pearls found in the wild. You can find a huge selection of cultured pearls from our amazing collections of necklaces.
If you want a pearl necklace from pearls found in the ocean, the cost is much higher. Real pearls of the quality you would want for fine jewelry are extremely rare. They are harvested from the ocean floor and can even run in the thousands of dollars for just one pearl. The good news is that you can find high quality, gorgeous pearls at rock bottom prices when you shop wholesale as a member of our jewelry club.
When an oyster is producing a pearl, it usually starts with a single grain of sand. The oyster reacts to the sand just like your foot would to a splinter. It starts to try to protect itself from the sand, which is an irritant. During this process, the oyster produces nacre, which hardens layer after layer around the grain of sand. The result over time is a pearl. The number of layers of nacre determine the thickness of a pearl. The recommended thickness for pearls should be around 0.4mm or higher. The thicker the nacre, the longer life of the strand of pearls.
There are many other factors you want to consider. The luster and the surface of pearls should be almost like a mirror where they shine so well you can almost see yourself. With white pearls, the shinier the pearls on the strand are the more valuable the necklaces are. However, many other colors are now becoming quite popular. There are black, gray and silver pearls. Some pearls are pinkish and some are beige. We have a great selection and some of each of these colors. The most important factor is that you choose the color you prefer. They are all stunning in their own right. Pearls are one of my favorite items we sell and you can’t go wrong with any of them.
