Make a multitude of chic and elegant DIY costume jewels with this round puck-shaped irregular freshwater bead !
What are freshwater pearls?Freshwater pearls are natural pearls bred in the fresh waters of rivers and lakes. These pearls are nucleated using organic material, usually a fragment of shell, so that the bead is made exclusively of mother-of-pearl. Nature never does the same thing twice, which is why beads vary in shape and size. Some are round or oval, others are long or twisted. It's these irregularities that give them their charm.
This freshwater bead has an AA+ grade, which means it has a very brilliant luster and very few imperfections. Its excellent quality makes it ideal for dazzling creations.
