Attractive Pearl Earrings

Pearls are one of the jewels most commonly used for all types of earrings, or earrings pierced or clip-on type. Have been used from our ancestors as ornamental plants and accessories to decorate the face.

Pearls are commonly known to have come from oysters, but not all oysters can produce pearls. Pearl producing oysters and mussels belong to the phylum Mollusca, a group known for his mantle, which is a special type of fabric that allows the development of natural pearls through the aid of any foreign object (earth, stone, small life forms, and other tiny particles) that can be trapped between the mantle and shell Mollusca.

Pearls can be natural or cultured. It is very difficult to find natural pearls, especially with the costs that can rise to a frightening level. There was a constant demand for pearls, which do not correspond with the limited supply of natural pearls. The demand paved the way for the cultivation of pearls, which is usually done by putting pieces of the mantle tissue of live brine and a small piece of round pearl freshwater clams.

Commonly found in jewelry stores and are imitation pearls, which are usually made of all, glass, shells or coated with lacquer or fish scales, to adopt the brightness and color of natural pearls or real, but they can also be artificially colored .

How to distinguish natural and imitation Cultured Pearl Earrings

Buyers of time may not be able to tell the difference between natural or cultured pearls, but an expert can detect the difference in just a glance. The so-called "test" tooth can be done to determine the difference. Cultured pearls feel rough when rubbed against the teeth while imitation pearls can even break because of the artificial materials used.
