Black pearls show naturally dark body colors and iridescent overtones. White pearls emphasize classic brightness and may appear more traditional for formal wear.
Yes. Common overtones include peacock, green, aubergine, and silver. Lighting and clothing can subtly shift how these overtones appear.
Decide on size, shape, and overtone first, then pick the setting and metal color. For everyday wear, 8–10 mm works well; larger sizes create a bolder look.
Wipe after wear with a soft cloth, avoid chemicals and ultrasonics, and store separately in a soft pouch. Wear often to keep nacre hydrated.
