Important Notes
Because these are natural, hand-harvested freshwater pearls, each bead is unique — slight variations in shape, size, and color tone are a hallmark of their authenticity. The quantity per strand may vary due to the irregular sizing of each pearl; please refer to the actual quantity received. On-screen colors may differ slightly from the true color due to individual monitor settings.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these real freshwater pearls or imitation pearls?
A: These are 100% genuine natural freshwater pearls, not acrylic or shell imitations. Each pearl is harvested from freshwater mollusks and features authentic luster and organic irregularity that synthetic beads cannot replicate.
Q: How many pearl beads come on each 15-inch strand?
A: Because these freshwater pearl loose beads are irregular in size (ranging from 3mm to 9mm), the exact count per strand varies. The weight per strand is approximately 12g–31g. Please expect natural variation — this is a feature of genuine irregular oval freshwater pearls.
Q: What jewelry projects are these freshwater pearl beads best suited for?
A: These DIY pearl beads are wonderfully versatile. They work beautifully for handmade bracelets, necklaces, earrings, anklets, and even hair pins or keychains. Their white, pink, and purple color options make them especially popular for bridal and wedding jewelry as well as everyday fashion accessories.
Q: Can I mix the white, pink, and purple pearl beads together in one design?
A: Absolutely! Many jewelry makers order multiple color strands to create ombre, multicolor, or mixed pearl designs. The varying sizes (3–9mm) within a single strand also make it easy to design layered or graduated jewelry pieces.
