Biwa Pearl Necklace

Biwa fresh water pearl on 20” long rose gold or sterling silver chain, perfect gift for yourself or a loved one. Pictured is rose gold.

Pearls are some of the most timeless gems on the market, and the Biwa pearl is beautifully unique. Because each type of pearl forms in a specific type of oyster or mussel in a certain location, there are several different varieties, and each has its own appearance and characteristics.

Biwa pearls are unusually shaped cultured pearls that come from the freshwater mussels found in Lake Biwa, Japan.
