Very large 16-17 mm keshi baroque freshwater cultured pearl earrings in 18K gold plated sterling silver, finished with a beautiful Lapis Lazuli stone, which gives them a different and original touch.

Keshi type freshwater pearls are very special pearls, they tend to be flat, especially in larger sizes and their intense shine and baroque shape are the most remarkable characteristics. 

In addition to its characteristics, the cultivation process of these pearls is also very special. To cultivate traditional pearls, a piece of tissue from the mantle of a donor mussel is included in a mussel and returned to the water so that it is surrounded by nacre and creates a pearl, two years later when it is removed from the water to extract the pearls it has created, on some occasions, if the pearls obtained are of good quality, the mussel is closed again and returned to the water for another long period, but this time without including any nucleus. Since the pearl bag was already formed the first time, the mussel continues to generate nacre, which results in a wonderful Keshi freshwater pearl.

At Secret & You we are proud to be one of the few brands that offer this type of good quality pearls.
