Pink Round Freshwater Cultured Pearl Bracelet 14K White Gold 7.5 inch (AAA Gem)

HinsonGayle's simply stunning GEM Collection ultra-premium pink pearl bracelets are crafted from the highest quality cultured freshwater pearls available in the world. We meticulously hand select and match the pearls for each strand from literally 10,000s of undrilled earring quality pearls, the rarest and most beautiful freshwater pearls available. The pearls have exceptionally smooth surfaces, gorgeous natural body color, mirror-like luster, and hints of the rarest of pearl value characteristics known as surface iridescence or orient. The pearls were selected and matched for their enchanting naturally pink colors that exhibit lovely lavender to peach pink overtones - each bracelet strand is unique and strand colors will vary from bracelet to bracelet - though each bracelet will have uniform pearl colors within the strand.

As naturally pink pearls, their uniquely beautiful color developed naturally in the shell as they were cultivated; they have not been dyed and their natural pink color is solid and permanent. Our premium freshwater pearls are 100% solid nacre pearls and were formed without the assistance of an inserted bead. HinsonGayle's handpicked GEM Collection pearls represent the crème de la crème of the cultured pearl harvest and rival the highest quality Akoya and South Sea saltwater pearls. HinsonGayle's quality specifications are so strict that only 1 in 5,000 genuine cultured pearls makes the cut for these acclaimed GEM Collection pearl strands. The pearls are individually hand knotted on fine Japanese thread and the approximately 7.5 inch bracelet is finished with a premium hand polished 14K white gold double-safety clasp. (NOTE designs with pearl sizes 7.5mm and larger are finished with a Ball style double-safety clasp, the 6.5mm bracelet is finished with a fish hook style double-safety clasp) Accessorize your bracelet with our gorgeous GEM Collection necklace and earring set, or our Gem Collection necklace only, or our Gem Collection stud earrings only.

Selecting the Perfect Pearls

SIZE

Freshwater Cultured pearls range in size from 6.0mm up to 12.0mm, with the most popular sizes being 6.0-7.0mm, 7.0-8.0mm and 8.0-9.0mm. Generally, the smaller sized 6.0-7.0mm are perfect for petite ladies, teens and girls over 8 years old, while the 7.0-8.0mm and larger  sizes are an excellent and popular selection for women of all ages.

COLOR/OVERTONE

Freshwater Cultured pearls come in a continuum of natural colors. Ranging from white, pink, peachy-pink, and even rarer, lavender hues. Color-treated black freshwater cultured pearls are dark, multi-colored pearls that exhibit iridescent peacock colors.

LUSTER

The quality and quantity of light that is reflected from the surface, and just under the surface, of a pearl.  Pearls with a high luster have more nacre and are generally more  valuable. Both our AAA Handpicked and AAA Gem quality pearls display luster that is incredibly lustrous and "satiny". Our AAA Gem quality Cultured pearls will reflect light at a higher rate, and feature slightly sharper luster.

SURFACE QUALITY

Surface quality in freshwater cultured pearls is usually graded on an A-AAA grading scale. Our AAA Gem Collection and AAA Handpicked quality will display much less blemishing than the industry accepted norm of 5% blemishing on the surface. HinsonGayle classic round studs and strand surfaces are almost perfectly clean.

SHAPE

Pearls come in an infinite number of shapes. Generally the rounder the pearl the more valuable (assuming all other grading characteristics are the same). Our Classic Collection comes in round, near round, slightly off round, button, and oval shapes. Our Designer Collection showcases free-form baroque, keshi, coin and seed pearls.

MATCHING

Whenever a pearl is sold with other pearls, matching becomes an important value factor. Pearl are matched on color, luster, surface quality, size and shape. The pearls in classic studs and single strands should appear uniform on these value characteristics.

HinsonGayle Quality Grades 

AAA Gem Collection 

AAA Gem Collection Classic jewelry consists of rare, nearly perfectly round, ultra-premium pearls that exude the smoothest and cleanest surfaces with an incredibly high luster, brilliant iridescence, uniform in size, meticulously color-matched, and virtually flawless.

AAA Handpicked Collection

Graded at slightly below our AAA Gem Collection, this particular class still offers meticulous color and size matching, striking iridescence, naturally high luster and smooth surfaces — these round shaped pearls are classified as nearly round/slightly off round.

Handpicked

Exceptional value at HinsonGayle never means sacrificing quality. Our Handpicked Collection pearls are almost equal in luster, size, uniformity, and color matching as our AAA grade collections. Used in many of our fashion-forward designs, these pearls may exhibit very minor surface imperfections and are always stunning. Classic round pearl designs will be slightly off-round.
