Step 1 What are cultured pearls?

• The pearls sold in the market are known as
  cultured pearls or to be called as Natural
  pearls. Many consumers and jewelers called it as
  Freshwater pearls as cultured pearls. But this is
  confusing because Tahitian, Akoya, South Sea and
  Freshwater pearls are all cultured pearls. To
  avoid this, familiar consumers and dealers will
  refer pearls by their exact pearl type.

Step 2 What type suits your style and budget?

• Select what type of pearl suits your style
  and budget. A strand of pearls can range from
  40- 45,000, so you need to understand the
  different types of pearls by their size, price
  range, color and shape.

Step 3 Select the right color

• White is the classic, versatile color choice
  and many believed that a woman's first pearl
  necklace should always be a white strand. "Black"
  pearls are not actually black but dark shades of
  gray, greens and blues and give an exotic look
  that works especially well with darker skin
  tones. Pink, peach and lavender shades are
  perfect for spring and summer wear but when color
  matched correctly - an outfit can look incredibly
  sophisticated as well.

Step 4 Understanding the value factors

• When dealing with cultured pearls there are
  several factors that will determine the overall
  value of a pearl.
• Shape Shape is the biggest factor. The highest
  price is commanded by the round shaped pearls but
  most of the people like the uniqueness of baroque
  and off round pearls.
• Surface Another important factor of pearl is its
  surface. The cleaner the surface of the pearl
  shows its better quality.
• Luster It is related to the surface. The poor
  surface affects the luster of the pearl. A
  pearls luster makes a pearl pop and stand out.
  
• Size Last but most important factor is size and
  in the case of pearls size matters. Choose the
  pearls of 7mm and larger for adults and for
  teenager smaller than 7mm.
