Drilled, White Freshwater Cultured Rice Pearl 8.5-9.5mm – 14.5″ strand

Nice white rice pearls.  Any freshwater pearls that are not white, peachy or lavender are dyed.  However, even the natural colors, have most likely been treated.  After pre-treatment washing, most pearls undergo bleaching, dyeing, and a light polishing, and some types also receive luster enhancement. While many people view dyeing negatively, there’s little to no stigma associated with these routine pearl treatments.  Pearls are a natural material, color and size will vary.
