Edison pearls are pearls made by imitating the formation process of natural pearls. They are usually artificially inserted into shells or oysters, and then oyster secretions or other substances are added to form pearl sacs. After a period of time, these pearl sacs will gradually crystallize and form substances similar to natural pearls.
Edison's pearls vary in color and shape, including fresh water white, fresh water powder, fresh water purple, fresh water blue, gold, purple and black. These pearls are usually cheaper than natural pearls, so they are widely used in jewelry manufacturing and other industrial applications. Edison pearls are very popular in the jewelry industry because they can provide various colors and shapes at relatively low prices. They are also widely used to make earrings, necklaces, bracelets and other jewelry.
The difference between artificial pearls and pearls
1. Formation mode: pearls are naturally formed, usually in mollusks such as shellfish or mussels, after months or even years of gestation. Artificial pearls are made by artificial methods, such as making small balls with plastic, glass and other materials, then putting them into oysters, wrapping the small balls with secreted secretions to form beads, and finally forming artificial pearls.
2. Shape and size: Natural pearls vary in shape and size, generally round, oval and pear-shaped, and there are many colors. Artificial pearls are usually round or oval, with the same size and single color.
3. Gloss and texture: The luster and texture of natural pearls are usually more natural and softer than artificial pearls, with unique textures and colors. The luster and texture of artificial pearls are more uniform and monotonous.
