What are freshwater beads?Freshwater beads are natural beads cultivated in the freshwater of rivers and lakes.
These beads are nucleated using organic material; a shell fragment is typically used so that the bead is made entirely of mother-of-pearl.
Nature never creates two identical beads, which is why their shapes and sizes vary.
Some may be round or oval, while others are elongated or irregularly shaped. It is these irregularities that give them their charm.
This freshwater bead is graded AA+, meaning it has a very brilliant luster and very few imperfections. Of excellent quality, it is ideal for dazzling creations.
