Souffle Freshwater Pearl Torsade
|
|
Item Code: FSN-Torsade |
|
|
We are very proud to be one of the first companies in the United States to introduce the newest type of freshwater pearl being grown today. These massive pearls are grown at only two small farms in the Hunan Province of China, making them the rarest and most elusive pearls on the market.
Introduced at the Tucson Gem Show in February of 2010, these large, metallic pearls were dubbed "Soufflé" due to their colorful beauty and incredibly light weight. Soufflé pearls are grown in a manner previously unknown to the trade. Each pearl is grown by inserting an earthen-like substance into the pearl mollusk. When the pearl is harvested and drilled, this substance is removed, resulting in a large, yet lightweight pearl.
The nacre on each of the pearls is extremely thick, much thicker than the nacre found on most sea pearls, resulting in very durable, beautiful pearls with metallic luster. The pearls are approximately 13 to 17 mm in size, although each strand will vary slightly due to their natural, free-forming baroque shapes.
This design features 3 rows of souffle pearls twisted into an ornate 14k yellow gold torsade clasp. We made only 1 necklace in this design and the strand in the photo is the one you will receive. |
