Product Details
This double-layer freshwater pearl bracelet pairs a 4.5–5mm inner strand with a 6.5–7.5mm outer strand, both near-round with Excellent luster on the GIA scale. The surface is lightly marked — the natural texture of a real pearl rather than a polished bead. Approximately 7.1 in, finished with silver-plated brass. Each pearl forms naturally, so slight variation in colour, size and shape is part of the piece. Finished in Ontario, Canada.

How We Grade a Pearl
Five qualities separate a good freshwater pearl from a great one, and they are the criteria we grade on ourselves.
Luster. The defining quality. A top-grade pearl returns light almost like a mirror, with crisp reflections rather than a soft haze.
Surface. Smooth, near-flawless nacre. Minor characteristics are natural in any real pearl; on our strands they are minimised, or hidden at the drill holes.
Shape. A truly round pearl rolls across a flat surface without wobbling.
Size. Measured across the pearl's widest point. Larger pearls are considerably rarer, because a pearl grows only as long as the mollusc keeps laying nacre.
Matching. In a strand, consistency matters as much as any single pearl — uniform colour, graduation and luster.
AAAA is the top of the freshwater scale, and it is where we source.
