Freshwater grading

What Freshadama 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+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.
  • FreshadamaThis piece. Our 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.
Read the full grading standards

This necklace is crafted with nine lustrous 6.5-7.0 mm Freshadama freshwater pearls, each individually hand-wrapped into the solid, 14-karat gold 16-18 inch adjustable chain.

Freshadama pearls are sorted from the highest 0.01% of the freshwater pearl harvest each year. These pearls are exceptionally difficult to collect, and we’ve been proudly offering them for decades through our exclusive partnerships in Asia. Each pearl is solid nacre to the center, with no bead beneath the surface.

By purchasing these pearls, you are guaranteed to receive the absolute best freshwater pearls produced in the world today.

Before you decide

We can show you the pearls first

The pearls are here in our Los Angeles office. Before you buy anything, we will photograph the exact strand we would use for your necklace and send it to you.

We knot to order, so you may see the pearls before they have been strung and clasped.

What you will see

Photographs of the exact strand we would use for your necklace.

We hold the exact pearls we photograph for you for 24 hours while you decide.

We usually reply within one business day, Monday through Friday.

The same on everything we sell

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.
