How to spot a fake pearl

Posted by Kristen Kowall on Jun 01, 2017

 

Do you know how to spot a fake pearl?

Want to know if a pearl is real or fake? Rub them gently against your teeth with a side to side motion. If they are real, you will feel a slightly sandy, gritty texture. If they are fake, they will feel slippery and smooth. Don't worry - we only sell real pearls!
