Freshwater Cultured Star Pearls 11-12mm Half Drilled 2 Piece Pack

Freshwater Cultured Star Pearls 11-12mm Half Drilled 2 Piece Pack

Our Pearl Stars are a phenomenon! They form when a star-shaped Bead or particle is placed in a mollusc. As the Pearl grows, the mollusc covers it in Nacre to create star shapes. That’s incredible.

This set of two Pearl Stars is half-drilled, measuring between 11-12 mm each and in a pack of 2-pieces. Hand-curated by Marie Chalmers gives you two incredible Freshwater Pearls that can be used together or individually.

Coming in a selection of golden, pink or multi-coloured colours, each Star is stunning. These are genuinely superb value at only £12.50 per set of 2.

Pearl is the birthstone for June, offering a feminine and romantic feel which can elevate any outfit they are paired with. If you wear it as your birthstone, it will bless you with love and luck.

Whatever you make with our Pearls, we would love to see your work! Join our Facebook Group – Inspire Chalmers Gems, or tag us on Instagram or TikTok using @ChalmersGems.

Freshwater Cultured Star Pearls Gemmology Facts:

Where Gemstones form as minerals underground, Pearls are organic; they form within the soft tissues of a living creature, a mollusc.

Natural Pearls form when a mollusc defends itself against a parasite or a piece of sand. They emit a fluid called Nacre, which eventually layers to create what is known as a Pearl.

The difference between Natural and Cultured Pearls is that Cultured Pearls are given a helping hand through a mantle inclusion. 90% of today’s Pearl market is for Cultured Pearls.

The Pearl industry supports many people in areas that encounter extreme climatic events. They depend on Pearls to support their communities’ ecosystems and create multiple livelihood opportunities.

These biogenic beauties are among the few genuinely Sustainable Jewellery components on the market compared to the mining of Diamonds and Gold, for example.

Freshwater Pearls are extremely durable, and when worn with care, they will continue to maintain their colour and lustre for decades to come.

When looking for Freshwater Pearls, you should be able to see clean skins, an excellent lustre and limited pits.

Did you know the rounder the Pearl, the higher the price?

Crystal Healing Properties: What are Freshwater Cultured Star Pearls good for?

Freshwater Pearls represent integrity and purity, being a jewel of the sea. Moon and Water ruled Stones offer the wearer protection and enhance truth and loyalty.

Pearls are not necessarily the first Gem we reach for when we think of the Chakras, usually dominated by Crystals. Yet, the “Flaming Pearl” symbolises our inner wisdom in Hinduism and Buddhism – encouraging us to discover our true selves and our purpose on Earth.

Pearls can assist with the search for higher understanding and truth and are often associated with the 7^th Crown Chakra.

Freshwater Pearls move any negative attachments from your aura and help to fill the aura with healing light. These have Luna energy; place them in the moonlight to recharge these soothing Gems.

Gemstone & Crystal Care:

One of the most important things to remember if you own Gemstones or Crystals is to care for them properly. Gemstones should be carefully cared for like any other item we love.

We recommend using the Chalmers Gems Gemstone Cleaning & Polishing Cloth to keep your Freshwater Cultured Star Pearls clean.
