First of all, pearls are divided into seawater pearls and freshwater pearls according to their growing environment. Generally, seawater pearls are nucleated pearls, while freshwater pearls are seedless pearls. There seems to be fresh water and nucleated pearls in Zhuji, Zhejiang. Guangxi Beihai belongs to the important producing area of seawater pearls I have been to, but what you see may be seedless pearls (freshwater pearls). Compared with me, the value of seawater pearls is much higher under other conditions, but special circumstances are not excluded. Seawater beads are round and big because they have beads, while freshwater beads have no beads, so their roundness is not as round as seawater beads!

If there are conditions, I suggest you buy seawater beads.

But whether you buy seawater or fresh water, you should pay attention to the following aspects.

1, the size of the pearl, of course, the bigger the better!

2, the roundness of pearls, of course, the rounder the better!

3, the surface of the pearl, of course, the less the better!

4, luster, you know!

The above four points are the most important factors affecting the value of pearls!

Of course, there are some mother-of-pearl thicknesses. Now the nacre of seawater beads is generally thin!
