13-14.5mm Off White Baroque Freshwater Pearls 16.5 inch 31 pieces

This 16 inch strand includes 31 off-white baroque freshwater pearls measuring between 13mm and 14.5mm in diameter. Each pearl displays a natural off-white hue and is meticulously matched for uniformity in size, color, quality, distinctive nacre texture, and irregular form.

Baroque freshwater pearls have been cultured using a host mollusk in a lake environment. The 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.
