Pearl terms like “cultured,” “saltwater,” and “akoya” can seem so intimidating at first to a pearl shopper! What pearl terms or topics would YOU like to better understand?
If there is some bumpy texture near the holes not exactly around the holes but nearby .. does that mean the pearl is fake?
@@parinazaz4044 Hmm, I think I’d have to see it to better understand. You might watch my recent video “Real Vs Fake Pearls,” where I show close ups of how the drill hole should look. If not, maybe check pearl-guide.com. Hope that helps!
I love your Pearl videos. Thanks!

Where can you buy single Akoya pearls for knotting
I found a seller on Etsy who was advertising his pearls as freshwater akoyas. I messaged him, saying that akoyas were only saltwater but he responded, saying that there were oysters of the same variety that grew in fresh water. Is this true?
