Go unique with unusual Keshi pearls


People are usually attracted towards smooth and even looking pearls. But, my choice is always different. Yes, I am just so dragged towards Keshi Pearls. And, these pearls are very much on demand in the market for their irregular and unusual shape. They are usually small in size due to the absence of nucleus to affect its profile.



Keshi is derived from the Japanese word “poppy seed”. Sometimes, Keshi is also known as the seed pearl. In fact, these pearls might be little bigger than a grain of sand. Origin of these pearls is from saltwater or freshwater shells.

When I came to know about the formation of Keshi pearls, I found it even more interesting. Yes, this category of pearl is formed inside the shell in a very unique way. Growth of this pearl can be seen by planting a bead nucleus into the oyster. This bead nucleus is naturally taken from the outer shell of clams. And, it is then formed to a regular round shape. Then bead of it will be implanted into the soft tissue of the mollusk. Upon placing the irritant inside the mollusk, the production of the nacre starts taking place.

When I first saw Keshi pearl, it looked unusually brighter in luster, because it has a solid nacre component. They are found in many shapes, but they are usually irregular in shape. Each one pearl is quite different than others. Layer on layer of pure nacre makes the Keshi a rainbow colored gemstone. What is more appealing about these pearls is that they are found to be very exotic and unique. I found them as the fashion accessories making the wearer more gorgeous in appearance.


I have seen collection of colors and shades in Keshi pearls. Pearl farmers are creative enough to apply dyes according to the preference of the market. Different cultures of these pearls have distinct color preferences. I have chosen them as per my color of the skin. In the market, they are found to be real pearls, although they are cultured. I found them timeless pieces of gems. I am never wrong wearing pearls like, Keshis.

Know about Freshwater Biwa pearls in details


Today, I have decided to get decked up with my satin black gown for the evening party. Thus, I am little skeptical about my jewelry. But, no wonder my hubby is as usual rescuer for me and he came up with one beautiful necklace and earring set made from freshwater Biwa pearls.


Yes, I have a huge collection of beautiful pearl sets in my closet. My husband has a good understanding of different types of gemstones present in the market. For the past many occasions, he is adorning me with Biwa pearl jewelries.

To give details about these particular gemstones, I should say that pearls available in the market come with variety of shapes, sizes and colors. Besides, fresh water and salt water cultured pearls; it can be further categorized into Biwa Pearls and Akoya Pearl.

To go deep inside the history of Biwa Pearls, I must mention that Biwa is a place in Japan, where pearl production takes place in a huge way. But, due to the water and air pollution of that place, production of this special gemstone has almost been stopped. Thus, it is very difficult to find an original Lake Biwa pearl in the market. That’s the reason why I am overexcited about my possession.

Apart from Japan, China and USA are also ruling the market of different types of pearls. Especially, tremendous growth in the business of this gemstone has seen in USA in recent times. Japan is famous for producing quality pearls than China.

But, when it is strictly about freshwater Biwa pearls, then I should explain certain positive characteristics of Biwa pearls, which make them more desirable than saltwater ones.

Smoothness: Finicky buyers like me would not appreciate pearls with bumps and wrinkles on it. Smoother pearls make it more expensive.

Luster: After smoothness, if something really does matter, then it is supposed to be luster. And, this particular characteristic enhances the value of the pearl.

Color: More range of colors can be seen in freshwater variety, which includes white, blue, gray, pink, yellow, violet, lavender, rose and orange (dark, medium, light).

Shape: Freshwater pearls can be seen in endless number of shapes like, oval, drop, stick, square, coin, rectangular and diamond etc.
