Freshwater Stick Pearl Beads

Stick Pearl Beads are almost always long, narrow, flat and drilled through the flat middle part of the pearl. We do offer them as top-drilled and drilled on the long dimension when they are available.

Stick pearls are great for adding contrast and depth to your jewelry designs. You may hear them referred to as Biwa Pearls, but we generally use that term only for long, thin pearls that are less bumpy and more rounded.

Pearl buying tips:

Freshwater pearls are temporarily strung and sold by the strand. Strands are usually 15.5-16" long (40 cm).

Pearls are a natural product and some styles and colors will be available only in limited amounts. Though we try to buy pearls that can be re-stocked, some styles may not be available again. So, we suggest you purchase all the strands that you need for a particular project at the same time.

Our pearls are priced based on their overall quality. Higher priced pearls will be more consistent in color and shape and have better luster. Small pearls also will be higher in price (more labor to prepare the strands) as will very large pearls (more rare and they take longer to culture).

The freshwater pearls we sell at abeadstore.com and PearlBeadSale.com are all cultured pearls; for more information about the pearl culturing process please see the All About Pearls page on our wholesale website PearlBeadSale.com.
