Compare Freshwater necklace rows, shapes and materials

Beyond the classic single strand below, compare how the number of rows, pearl shape and fastening change a necklace. Pearl diameter and necklace length describe different measurements.

Two rows of round pearls: 8–9mm white Freshwater double-strand necklace — good luster, a box clasp and AKWAYA's AAA seller grade. Choose the listed 17-, 18- or 20-inch option and 14K white or yellow gold; these are selectable variants.
A fixed three-row arrangement: 6.5–7.5mm white Freshwater three-row necklace — potato-shaped pearls with good luster, moderate surface blemishing and good matching. The rows measure approximately 16.5, 17 and 18 inches within one necklace, with a rhodium-plated base-metal box clasp.
Oval pearls with leather: 12–13mm white Freshwater pearl leather necklace — medium luster and a coin-pearl toggle fastening. Select a 16-, 18- or 20-inch necklace; compare the larger oval pearls with the smaller pearls in the multi-row examples.

Use the Pearl Shape Guide for round, oval and potato terminology, and the Pearl Care Guide for cleaning and storage. For other pearl types, browse all Pearl Necklaces. Check the selected variant, current availability and included components before ordering.

Brown pearl necklaces and endless strands: which style fits?

Brown baroque pearls in 18 or 20 inches

The 10–11mm brown baroque Freshwater pearl necklace combines irregular pearl shapes, high luster and a base-metal clasp. Select either 18 or 20 inches on the product page; these are separate length options, not an adjustable 18–20-inch strand. The product specifications identify these brown pearls as dyed and their origin as China; the brown color is not presented as untreated.

60-inch or 100-inch endless pearl necklace?

60-inch white endless strand: 7–8mm semi-round Freshwater pearls, good luster and very good matching.
100-inch white endless necklace: 6.5–7.5mm potato-shaped Freshwater pearls, good luster, moderately blemished surfaces and very good matching.

Both listings specify double-knotted silk. Their measurements describe total strand length, not the vertical drop when worn. The longer strand offers more length to arrange; a particular number of loops or fit is not guaranteed. Compare the necklace length guide and each product's photographs before choosing.

How to choose a Freshwater pearl necklace

Shape and style: rounder pearls create a more traditional strand, while oval, drop and baroque pearls emphasize texture and individuality.
Size: pearl diameter changes both visual scale and the overall feel of a strand. Use the Pearl Size Guide to compare millimeter sizes.
Color: Freshwater jewelry can appear in white, cream, champagne, pink, lavender, peach and treated fashion colors. Check each product’s stated color rather than relying only on a collection photo.
Length, clasp and quality: verify necklace length and clasp details, then compare luster, surface, shape and matching with the Pearl Grading Guide.

Which freshwater pearl necklace should I choose?

For a smaller single strand, compare 6.5–7mm potato-shaped pearls at 20 inches. For larger pearls and a gold clasp, compare the 8–9mm semi-round 18-inch strand. Choose three or five rows for a layered neckline, or a 60-inch endless strand for a long drape.

Compare the six featured necklaces above. Pearl diameter is measured in millimeters; necklace length is measured in inches. Mother-of-pearl describes the shell component of a clasp, not its metal. Check color treatment separately from pearl type.
