Gold color freshwater pearls

[Martina P Sachsen]

Are freshwater pearls ever a gold color like the soth sea pearls? Not like the fancy pearls like the nugget. I think those looks fake, But like a natural color?

Hi Martina,

Yes freshwater pearls can be golden to bronze colored by nature. If they golden color is attractive, these can be very expensive especially when the pearls are large.

Does anyone here sell that one? I have saw black, pink, peach, lavender, and white. But no golden ones.
If the cost is high for this color in freshwater is it high like south sea gold colors? If it is the gold south sea is more valuable or not?

golden color pearl is usually sea pearl, and is sold single not by string.
in our china, the nomal price reach to 190$ when the size reach 9mm

The nice golden-colored Freshwaters are quite rare. Therefore, it is harder to find them in the marketplace. If it is the color you are looking for, you may want to go with Golden South Sea pearls. Akoya pearls can be found in golden as well but often they are low grade pearls.

Hi Amanda,

Here's a pic of a nice 11mm golden freshwater pearl. It's been color treated but looks very nice, almost just like a golden south sea.

enjoy!

If single gold color freshwater is rare and hard to find in the marketplace, how much is it worth for a 11.5 to 12.50 mm golden round chinese freshwater pearl?

Well, would it be natural color? Is it just a single pearl? What is the size range indicative of?

[KennyLieu]

The size of the pearl is the indication of mollusk age. Its the top of the line that they carry I got so fascinated and excited about, and I just buy. Whether its freshwater or saltwater, I don't know. I look all over the place, and there's no place that sell perfectly round gold color pearl freshwater. I look up GIA in San Diego, and thinking about obtaining both reports.

Wondering if the color range in the edison pearls includes a natural golden color?

[jshepherd]

There are pearls that do lean toward gold or bronze, but they don't look like SSP.

I should rephrase one of my initial questions. If it is one single gold pearl and it is round, why is the size 11.5 to 12.5 mm? That is the size range found in a strand, not a single pearl.

[KennyLieu]

To answer your question specifically, the longer lifetime of a mullusk correspond to the size of the pearl. Another word, the older the mollusk gets, the bigger the pearl gets. Therefore, I believe mine to be about over ten years old life in a mollusk. That's what makes my pearl exciting, fascinating, spiritual, and splendid when I look at it.

[KennyLieu]

The gold color freshwater pearl are rare due to supply. Not a lot of mullusk produce gold color; therefore, supply are so super low with respect to age. A rare single undrilled gold color freshwater pearl's price always goes up. If its drilled, the price stay the same. That's what I learned and convinced enough during my vacation in China.
On the other hand, I find it so much enjoyable when I peek at my pearl once in a while. Its magnificent, splendid, exciting, fascinating, and spiritual.
