People are always worried about choosing bad pearl necklaces and matching jewelry, and the prices of different styles and grades of pearl necklaces are different. How to buy according to your own budget? The following are the approximate prices of several kinds of pearls for your reference.
1) Freshwater pearls: At present, most freshwater pearls are cultured, with abundant output. A round and beautiful pearl necklace with appropriate size is generally above 1000, which is inexpensive.
2) Nanhai Pearl: This kind of pearl is expensive because of its luster and large size. They are very rare, so a string of Nanhai pearl necklaces costs about 350 thousand.
3) Tahiti pearls: usually called "black pearls". The color of Tahiti pearls is quite exotic, with wonderful foil colors, usually peacock blue and peacock green. The price of a necklace made of this pearl is about 30,000 yuan or more.
4) Japanese Akoya pearls: Classic pearl necklaces are almost all made of Akoya pearls, which are generally pea-sized and have a silky luster. Such necklaces are generally more than 1000 yuan.
Step 2 read the instructions
The bigger and rarer the pearl, the higher its value. The more difficult it is to raise a pearl per 1mm, the longer the growth period, the less the yield by half, so the value of a pearl with a difference of 1mm has at least doubled.
Step 3 look at the circle
As the saying goes, the rounder the pearl, the rarer it is, and the value from high to low. The value of round or nearly round pearls is several times higher than that of oval pearls.
4. Look at the luster
Gloss is the soul of pearls and one of the most important factors to judge the value of pearls. Pearls without light and shimmer lack aura and aura. Pearls with good luster can better reflect people. The higher the value, the less valuable the pearls are.
Step 5 look at the epidermis
Natural pearls more or less inevitably have natural defects, or "birthmarks", which is a symbol of nature. Almost all seemingly flawless pearls are one in a million, which is rare and of course more valuable. And a string of pearls made of dozens of pearls, even if it reaches the highest quality, can often find a little natural imprint, which is normal.
6. Color matching
Pearl earrings or pearl necklaces. In fact, it is not easy to find two or more pearls (strings) with the same quality at the same time, and it takes some time and technology, so a well-matched pearl is usually better than a single pearl.
Pearl has a high market value. A pair of matching pearl earrings is often worth twice as much as a pearl. With good earrings, the size and color are similar; The matched necklaces and bracelets are similar in color, and the arrangement is not random.
Order, within a certain range of specifications, slightly larger pearls will be concentrated in the middle as far as possible, and the two ends will gradually become smaller to achieve the most beautiful wearing effect.
