Pearl pendants are the standout piece in any type of pearl. When designing pearl jewelry, it is easy for designers to create beautiful, unique pieces due to the fact that there are so many different types of pearls. Types of pearls include Freshwater, Akoya, Tahitian and South Sea Pearls. Another wonderful thing about pearls is that they come in many diverse shapes and sizes. Freshwater pearls are the smallest pearls, and they can come in sizes as small as a seed.
Many of these pearls can be grown per oyster with this type of pearl, making them one of the most common types of pearls. Akoya pearls generally do not grow any larger than 6-8 mm. These pearls are exceptional because they are always perfectly round pearls. Tahitian pearls starts growing in the oyster at 8mm. and can only have one pearls grown per oyster.
