The Wide World of Pearls, Our 82nd Issue: Pearls at the End of the Rai

 “RAINBOW PEARLS” 

The astonishing array of iridescent rainbow colors on Freshwater Ripple pearls will never cease to amaze! 

There are many precious gemstones that can display a rainbow of color; for example, Sapphire and Tourmaline can be found in EVERY color of the rainbow. Did you know that pearls can be seen in almost every color too? It’s true! 

There is the exception of red – no pearls have ever been seen in a true, fire-engine red (unfortunately!) but we do have amazing intense pink colors that approach reds today. 

That said, let’s take a look at the gorgeous array of colors available today!
