Pearl Diver: Science and Diversion

Welcome pearl aficionados!

This newly-named Forum invites deeper “Dives” into the whys and wherefores of the pearl production process, be it natural or cultured.

It may get technical at times, at others unabashedly esoteric.

No question or comment is out of bounds as long as it relates to pearls. Contributions and advice from members, the pearl trade, and the pertinent specialties of Marine and Material Sciences are most welcome.

Curiosity is the Pearl Diver’s mantra!

Hi. I'm a pearl seller in Lancashire and a former (retired) academic (teaching law). What can I do to help and I would love to see the dissertation when finished. Email me at wendy@pearlescence.co.uk

Hi Doug.
I have read a lot about UV light on this forum which can give us info about whether pearls are being treated . Can u tell me where we can obtain these UV lights and is it safe for us to use it ? Thank You.

I like Jewelmer Pearls had my first simple white SSP stud earrings and simple pendant in 2016. Since then bought the gold stud and pendant and ring. I am planning to get pearl gold strand then I plan to stop buying already. That is all. Thank you for educating things I learned in Pearl Guide.

Hi Jeremy,I have these jewelry bags called prezerve,they are meant to preserve sterling silver, so it won’t tarnish for up to 25 years. I keep my pearls in these bags because I don’t have a lot of space for storage.Is this a safe way to preserve my pearls or should I find another way,? Do you make anything like it but for pearls? I’m concerned that air does not flow.Can you please advise?
