Freshwater grading

What AA+ means on this strand

Our freshwater grades consider luster, shape, surface and matching together, and luster is what they turn on. Grading varies widely between sellers, so the letters alone are not worth much. Ours is an internal standard.

  • ABright luster that goes hazy at the edges. Near round to off round, 75 to 85% clean.
  • AA+This piece. Bright, with the edge of a reflection nearly sharp. Near round to round, 85 to 95% clean.
  • AAABright and sharp. Round, 95% clean or better, with excellent matching.
  • FreshadamaOur own top freshwater classification. Round, with mirror-like luster whose reflections hold a hard edge and a surface 98 to 100% clean. Drawn from earring-grade pearls, then checked pearl by pearl.

This classic white freshwater pearl necklace features 7.5-8.0 mm AA+ quality pearls, our most popular size. Striking the perfect balance between presence and wearability, this strand offers timeless elegance with a graceful, everyday feel.

The pearls are near-round to round to round, with clean surfaces and fine luster. Each strand is hand-matched for tone, size, and flow, then individually hand-knotted on twin silk in our Los Angeles studio. The necklace is available in 16- and 18-inch lengths and finished with your choice of solid 14 karat white or yellow gold clasp, each with a secure safety hook. As every strand is made to order, we’re happy to accommodate custom lengths upon request.

AA+ freshwater pearls offer excellent value, with smooth surfaces and natural glow. At 7.5-8.0 mm, the strand makes a versatile and refined statement for any occasion.

What you can count on before you look at a single pearl

We do our own buying

We do not outsource our buying, and we do not pick from someone else's catalog. Every pearl we sell is sourced, inspected and bought by us, from the growers, producers and dealers we have worked with for decades.

Made in Los Angeles

Matched and finished by our own team rather than pulled off a shelf, and still out the door within one business day.

Graded to our own standard

There is no universal pearl grading standard. Ours is internal, applied the same way across everything we sell, and luster is what it turns on.

Reviews

It’s a beautiful necklace

"It comes in a better shape than I imagined. The color, shape and feeling when touching are nice. My wife is so happy with this anniversary gift."

Yao Y. (5/5)

Amazing Quality

"I’m very happy with the pearls. I get compliments on them daily."

Jayden U. (5/5)

Floored

"My wife e was absolutely stunned when she opened the pearls for your anniversary. She was nearly speechless! The pearls are beautiful and she received many awestruck comments as we went out that night for dinner. We are very happy with the product. Additionally, I was floored with the customer service. I had accidentally ordered white gold and yellow gold for the necklace and bracelet respectively. I got a call from Pearl paradise, an actual call not an email, to verify that's what I wanted. It surprised me to say the least as most online purchases would have shipped, then I'd have to return, and waste all that time. I would suggest Pearl paradise to anyone looking to get some pearls. 5 stars."

Brantzen W. (5/5)

It's a very beautiful quality and the luster is soft and pretty, and i've received so many compliments. Mostly I love the way they feel. I love Pearl Paradise and we'll be making more purchases in the future."
