Natural Pearls: Nature's Treasure
A natural pearl is a gem created by a living mollusk, such as an oyster or mussel, without any human intervention. It forms when an irritant, like a grain of sand or a parasite, gets lodged inside the mollusk's body. To protect itself, the mollusk secretes layers of nacre, a substance similar to mother-of-pearl, around the irritant, gradually forming a pearl.

Rarity and Value
Natural pearls are exceedingly rare and therefore highly prized. Unlike cultured pearls, which are grown in controlled environments with human intervention, natural pearls are a product of pure chance. This scarcity, combined with their beauty and unique qualities, contributes to their exceptional value.

Cultured Freshwater pearls are graded using a version of the Chinese Pearl Grading System which separates pearls into Class I, Class II, Class III and Class IV grades according to Surface Quality, Luster, Matching and perfection of Shape (roundness and symmetry).

In order to simplify this classification system and maintain consistency with other popular grading systems, many vendors convert this Class system to a whole letter A-AAAA Scale. Class I pearls would be the highest grade, with Class IV representing the lowest pearl grades. Much of the Chinese Grading System utilizes the Japanese A-AAA Grading System to evaluate pearls (Luster and Surface Quality mainly), and ditches the "+" signs, relying on whole-letter grades instead.

See the chart below for a detailed breakdown of theA-AAAA system and the statistical benchmarks pearls need to meet in order to make the grade.
