How do you recognize real pearls?
Why choose pearls of natural origin? ã? We like natural pearls because they have a special beauty , each pearl is different and thus each piece of jewelry we make becomes unique. That is why we have selected reliable suppliers from Europe and Asia who have not only unique pearls, but also all the necessary authorizations and certificates.
In addition, we regularly test pearls using advanced methods by experts in the field and issue quality and conformity certificates for each piece of jewelry.
You too can discover, in a few simple steps, whether the pearls you purchased are real - created by oysters, or fake - made of glass or plastic.
Simple tests you can do:
1. You can gently rub the pearl against one of your teeth . face. Real pearls have a sandy texture, caused by the natural existence of small imperfections. Fake pearls are smooth and the presence of imperfections cannot be felt.
2. An alternative method is to rub two pearls together. Natural pearls have a slight friction between them due to the presence of small, completely natural imperfections. Fake pearls are smooth and "slippery", with almost no friction.
After this test you will be able to find a little white powder on your fingers - this is further proof that the pearls are real.
3. Look for small imperfections. Real pearls often have small imperfections and slightly irregular shapes. Fake pearls appear "too" perfect, spherical and almost always have the same amount of nacre on each side. Also, real pearls, being produced by nature, are rarely perfectly round. To test if a pearl is perfectly round, roll it on a flat surface. Imperfect - and therefore real - pearls do not roll in a straight line.
4. Feel the pearls on your skin. Real pearls feel cool to the touch and take a few seconds to warm up . Fake pearls, on the other hand, are room temperature and do not feel cold to the touch.
