10x8-11x8mm Cream Large Hole Baroque Pearls 15 inch 43 pieces

These Cream Side Drilled Baroque Freshwater Pearls have a good nacre quality exhibiting a flat side with surface irregularities. The pearls are a natural cream hue with a slightly iridescent overtone showing great luster. These pearls are well matched for color and quality on the strand measuring approximately 15 inches in length. Baroque freshwater pearls have been cultured using a host mollusk in a lake environment. The process takes at least 3-5 years to produce pearl of normal size and longer for an even larger pearl. Color is a factor of the mollusk mantle color, the growth environment, and perhaps a dyeing process after cultivation. To maintain pearls for years to come, care for them after wearing by storing in a non-airtight area, enclose them in a soft pouch when near items that could damage the nacre, and wash them gently with tepid water & a very mild soap. Finally, lay the strand flat to completely dry the cording before restoring the strand. With these simple steps, your pearls will be heirlooms to pass down generation to generation.
