From ancient China, where pearls were believed to protect against fire and dragons, to Renaissance Europe, where they symbolized modesty and purity, pearls have been treasured for centuries across cultures. These Cultured Freshwater Half Pearls bring that timeless elegance to your bench in a precise, flat-backed form suited for setting work, inlay, and decorative applications.
Cultured pearls are produced through the intentional insertion of a bead or piece of tissue into a mollusk, which then coats the nucleus with successive layers of nacre. Freshwater cultured pearls are grown in lakes and ponds — with China and the United States among the leading sources — and are prized for their wide range of shapes, sizes, and luster. Most pearls also display an iridescent phenomenon known as orient, a soft play of color within the nacre layers.
Pearl is the birthstone of June, making these half pearls a natural choice for custom birthstone jewelry and gift pieces. Their flat back and round form make them well-suited for bezel setting, adhesive mounting, and flush inlay designs.
Care: Clean with warm, soapy water only. Do not clean with an ultrasonic or steam cleaner.
