Pearls are composed of organically generated aragonite (calcium carbonate). The most valuable pearl is a salt water pearl, perfectly round, evenly colored and generally pure white or pure black. Hues include white, pink, cream, yellowish, greenish, bluish, grayish and black. Naturally occurring salt-water pearls are very rare. |
