At Pearls of Joy, we want all our customers to get the best “bang for your buck”, so we recommend staying with budget-friendly Freshwater pearls in classic single or double-strand necklace styles, with a range of sizes from 6.0-7.0mm up through luxurious 8.0-9.0mm - pearls that will truly make a statement. Saltwater Akoya pearls are also recommended, but with a more limited size range: stick with pearls under 6.5mm in size, AA+ in quality, and you can choose between classic white or color-treated black pearls. Also on offer are light and breezy Tin Cup necklaces, which are pearl necklaces featuring pearls individually wire-wrapped onto a fine 14kt gold chain, or casual and beachy pearl on leather necklaces which we offer in Tahitian and South Sea baroque pearl options.
