What types of pearls are there?
There are natural pearls that aren’t cultured. These pearls came about through Mother Nature. Cultured pearls. Humankind has intervened and helped Mother Nature create pearls of all different shapes and sizes. Many are astonishingly inexpensive; from $1 per strand, and many strands are less than $10. In 2007, at the Starr Pass Show (wholesale-buyer only), Arizona Bead Dog saw some cultured coin pearls for $600 per strand; so not always inexpensive.
