Luxury grade pearls, straight from the source

Same pearls. No store between you and the farm.

A pearl's cost is mostly the pearl. Traditional jewelers add a showroom, a sales floor, and a chain of middlemen on top of it. We buy at the farm, grade in-house, and sell at FreshwaterPearls.com — so the markup you're paying for is the strand, not the store.

Bracelet Size Guide

Measure your wrist, then choose the length that fits

How to measure

  1. Wrap a soft tape measure, or a strip of paper, snugly around your wrist just above the wrist bone.
  2. Mark where it meets, then lay the paper flat against a ruler.
  3. Add about ½ inch (1.5 cm) for a comfortable fit, or 1 inch (2.5 cm) for a looser one.

ColorGold

Natural color, never dyed, so the shade varies from champagne to warm gold.

TypeCultured freshwater Edison

Our gold pearls are Edison pearls: freshwater pearls grown one to a mussel around a small bead, under a coat of nacre 2 mm or more thick, several times an akoya's. That slow grow-out is what lets them grow a natural gold, never dyed. Freshwater nacre is the thickest of all pearls, so they are the longest-lasting and the best for wearing every day.

OriginChina

Grown on family-run freshwater farms in Zhuji, China, the center of the world's freshwater pearl industry.

Other materials
Sterling Silver Solid sterling silver (92.5% silver). It tarnishes slowly; a silver cloth, held away from the pearls, brings the shine back.
14k Gold Filled A thick layer of 14k gold pressure-bonded to a brass core. The gold layer is many times thicker than plating, so it won't fade with everyday wear and can last for decades. Contains no lead, cadmium or nickel, and is safe for sensitive skin.
PE Fiber The thread, knotted between every pearl. It looks identical to silk but is far stronger: silk stretches and needs restringing every few years, while PE Fiber can last for decades.

Only the finest pearls.

Our pearls are grown over years in freshwater farms we work with directly, then sorted strand by strand for luster, surface quality, and roundness. Fewer than 1 in 100 harvested pearls are what we consider to be "high grade" and fewer than 1 in 1,000 make our gem grade.
