Each and every 18 inch strand we offer has been hand-selected in Asia by our expert buying team who select only from the top grade available. This means that although the pearls are freshwater, they boast nearly perfect shape, surface and luster. As black is not a naturally occuring color in freshwater pearls, the pearls have been treated with a permanent organic dye to achieve their dark coloration. The Specified Size is an Important Distinction The size of the pearls in this strand range from 8.5-9.0 mm in size. This is a very imorptant distinction when shopping for pearls. A strand of pearls that is 8.0-9.0 mm will traditionally be composed of 75% 8.0-8.5 mm pearls and 25% 8.5-9.0 mm pearls. Our strands are composed of 100% 8.5-9.0 mm AA+ pearls. Not only does this make a significant difference in value, it's a difference you can see and feel. We individually knot every pearl on silk thread and finish the strand with a solid, 14-karat gold clasp.
