Hi, They are the same pearls. Only the first pic was made with white balance (it is similar then to day light) and the second pic is under normal artifical light. We have seen few golden fresh water pearls, and also their color is not so pure as the best SSP. Most bead-nucleated freshwater...

Hi, they are not South Sea Pearls. They are bead-nucleated fresh water pearls. They are also raw pearls and have not been processed. If one can produce more such pearls with some volume, they can challenge South Sea Pearls.

To improve my image, I put some beautiful Pearls: The smaller pearl has a diameter of ca. 10.9x11 mm. It is almost round. The larger pearl has a diameter of 11,6x12 mm. So it is something oval or barock. They are raw pearls and have not experienced any processing.

Hi Jeremy, I have called my friends and he has contact with the farmer. The pearls in drop form in the picture is bead-nucleated, but the nuclei are round, not drop form. Here are some pearls, whose are bead -nucleated and the nuclei are button form. The pearls were brought for the last fair...

Agree. For me, the quality is also the first factor. The size is generally decided by age, height and taste of people.

There are some spherical-beaded pearls. They are seldom. I have gotten 6 pieces with diameter 10.8 mm, 11.4mm and 11.8mm. The price is more than half of SSP. I try to get more, but it does not succeed.

Thanks for your info. The pearls are beautiful, but not the large in market.

I have not cut the pearls into pieces. But I think what they told me is true, because my family is in Zhuji. The pearls have metallic luster like fireballs. They are also different from coin pearls, which are too common and cheap. They still have not mastered the technology. The death rate is...

Hi olmander, what do you mean the size (in which side it is 12-14mm)?

Hi, I do not know which nuclei is used. I will ask them if I meet them in the future. The best are used for drop earrings, which are really beautiful. Jun

Hi Pattye, there are also other forms for bead-nucleated pearls. I have sold two piece round pearls with ca.12 mm and intensive color. In the long term, they can change the pearl world (bad for SSP). but at moment, they are still seldom and expansive. Here a picture for drop form (the bead has...

Hi, here are some pics of bead-nucleated pearls. I have also some round bead-nucleated pearls with ca.11 mm. But I cannot find them now. Probably I have some problems with upload of pics. I put links here: http://www.junwei.de/resources/kern7.jpg http://www.junwei.de/resources/kern6.jpg

The market in Weitang is still small compared with Zhuji. Most of the pearls in Weitang are also from Zhuji's raw pearl providers. In Zhuji, you need a large volume. Then you can get good or reasonable price. But it does not mean that you can get all you need at one time. The factories hesitate...

I have checked the link form Panda's discussion: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=330077531801 The same saler sell the clasp for $36 and Earring without pearls for $30. So he has only $60 for the pearls and EBay cost. With this cost, one can not buy good Akoya-pearls with 6,5-7.5mm...
