Product Description

This strikingly unique pearl necklace is one of HG Pearls' top selling necklaces; women absolutely love it! This elegant pearl necklace is fashioned from large free-form baroque pearls. Unlike South Sea baroque pearls, these freshwater free-form baroque pearls are 100% nacre and do not have an inserted nucleus at their core. Their baroque shapes formed naturally in the shell, thus they are called free-form baroque. These freshwater pearls are treasured for their unique and irregular shapes, as no two are exactly alike. The pearls were handpicked for their lovely white body color, high luster, hints of orient and nearly clean surfaces. The pearls are individually knotted on fine thread by our top-skilled artisan. This approximately 18-inch pearl necklace is finished with a beautiful hand-polished double-safety clasp. Available in Sterling silver in our AAA Handpicked Collection and in 14K yellow gold in the ultra-premium ultra-lustrous Gem Collection necklace. Make this princess length necklace a choker necklace by tying a knot in the center before putting it on. Pair with a matching baroque bracelet. Accent this necklace with larger white round studs or HinsonGayle's 9-9.5mm baroque dangle earrings.

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.

Free Shipping & Returns

We take the risk out of buying pearls online – free shipping both ways. Try it on and love it – if not, return it free. HinsonGayle has partnered with Fulfillment By Amazon to provide fast, reliable and affordable shipping options. All orders come with free 2-3 day shipping. You may select 1-2 day shipping for an additional fee. We cannot guarantee overnight delivery as shipping & delivery is dependent on what time of day the order is received and whether it is placed on a week day or weekend. Generally if it is placed before 10am EST, and on a weekday, 1-2 day shipping often arrives the following business day. Unfortunately we do not have control over this process.
