Pearl grey, strand round 5 mm

Strand length: approx. 40 cm

Cut: Round
Colour: Grey
Material: Freshwater pearl (organic calcium carbonate, CaCO₃, with conchiolin layers)

Freshwater pearls are cultivated in mussels in rivers and lakes – mainly in China, which is now the world's largest producer. Unlike saltwater pearls, freshwater pearls consist almost entirely of nacre, which gives them a particularly dense, beautifully shimmering surface. The uniformly round 5 mm pearls in delicate grey appear timelessly elegant and can be wonderfully combined with other stones and materials – a versatile basic material for classic and modern jewellery.

Important countries of origin: China, Japan, USA.
