Frequently Asked Questions before you buy
Why aren’t my Freshwater pearl earrings
perfectly round?
It’s a hallmark of authenticity. Freshwater pearls are organic gems that grow without a guiding spherical nucleus. That’s why it’s very common and natural for them to have slightly oval, baroque, or button shapes. This is not a flaw, but rather proof that you’re wearing a genuine cultured pearl
and not an industrial plastic bead.
Which backing is best for these earrings?
At SY Perlas we prioritize security. For stud models (flush to the ear), we use above-average butterfly push backs: 0.9 mm post and 6.5 mm wide clutch for perfect hold and stability. For girls’ or babies’ models within this category, we use screw backs. For drop designs, we use lever-back or hoop-style closures.
Can Freshwater pearl earrings get wet?
Although they’re water-resistant because they’re all nacre, our expert recommendation is that you take them off before showering or going into the pool to keep their satiny luster intact and avoid damage.
