Freshwater Teardrop Pearl Beads

Teardrop Pearl Beads are usually made from either Rice or Potato pearls and drilled through the end of the pearl instead of the center. As a result, many times you will see many more pearls per strand than with other pearl beads. If so, you will also see a higher price per strand.

How Many Teardrop Pearls on a Strand?

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.
