The size
The size of pearls is a characteristic that shouldn’t be omitted. The bigger the pearl is in its diameter, the expensive it will be in the end.

The shine is rather the element that comes from the interior side of the pearl, rather than on the surface, how it usually happens in the case of fake pearls. The natural pearls are going to present a contrast between the area in which the light hits directly the pearl and the area from the shadow where there is created the impression of a pearl ball. Verify the luscious side of the pearl, by examining the pearl in a fluorescent light of a lantern.

The color of the pearls is really important. The most wanted color and the rarest is white with tones of pink. The touches of color of cream are more accessible at the level of the price. No matter on which tone you decide, the bridal jewelry that you decide to apply for, has to make the difference.
