Now sourced directly from the pearl market in China, the gorgeous fresh water pearls are superb quality and excellent value. They are notorious for having tiny holes and so we highly recommend our bead reamer available in our tool section - a hand held tool for enlarging tiny holes and smoothing rough edges with fresh water pearls and semi precious beads. We also have a great range of silks for threading your pearls onto! For any extra hints and tips click onto our brand new venture - beadiscovered.
