The longer a pearl remains in an oyster, the more the nacre continues to accumulate on a pearl. Therefore, the longer a pearl remains in the oyster, the deeper the luster becomes, resulting in a deeper reflective sheen. East Queen merchandises pearls with high to very high luster. Different types of oysters naturally produce pearls in different sizes. East Queen offers different pearl types in a range of sizes. Any size extraordinary for a particular type of pearl will be more rare and therefore, more valuable. As a pearl is produced it can develop marks, blisters, spots, and other surface blemishes. A pearl with fewer surface markings is more rare and valuable. Since pearls are created at an oyster's whim, they rarely occur in completely round form. Most pearls are off-round in shape, and less often they are symmetrical. East Queen pearl strands are round to mostly round in shape. East Queen pearls are flawless to slightly spotted. When purchasing more than one pearl, be sure the pearls match in color. East Queen offers pearls ranging in color from white rosé to silver white rosé to golden to blue to black.
