Black Freshwater Pearl Pendants
Did You Know?
All Freshwater pearls used today are produced by the Freshwater Oyster (Hyriopsis Cumingi). This one is more commonly referred to as the Triangle Shell oyster.
The time it takes for each Freshwater pearl to grow inside the oyster lasts for between 2 and 6 years. So the longer the pearl is left to grow the larger it will be in size.
Today China has become the leading exporter of Freshwater pearls around the world. Due to the large amount of these pearls they are able to produce has meant that the price of them is much lower and makes buying any Black Freshwater pearl pendants more affordable.
The lighter the colour of these pearls then the better they are for using to be dyed to create black Freshwater pearls. As a result of this, it also makes them the most versatile of all the kinds of pearls you see available today.
