Factors affecting the price of pearls:
The price of pearl ornaments in the market varies, mainly depending on the pearl itself, such as color, shape, texture, luster and so on.
1, color: including body color and companion color. The companion color is seen from the diffuse light reflected from the pearl surface, while the other colors displayed by the pearl are body colors. Pearls with good quality are bright and translucent, especially under non-natural light, except for people's favorite colors (such as cream, cream, pink, white rose, black, etc. ).
2, shape: the ideal pearl should be a perfect ellipsoid, of course, such an ideal shape is not easy to get. Therefore, olive-shaped and pear-shaped pearls with approximate spherical shape and good symmetry are also expensive.
3, texture: flawless natural pearls are quite rare, and most of them have one or several flaws. Internal cracks, scratches, dents, bumps and spots on the surface will greatly reduce the price of pearls and even make pearls almost worthless.
