Choosing pearl necklace by color

Pearl color does affect the price of pearls. Even pearls in a same category have quite different price level just because of their color. However, pearl jewelry is a decoration to inspire beauty of wearer. It is better to choose suitable one instead of precious one. Your primary concern should be what looks best on you.
The most valuable pearls in the light body color group are pink, pink rose and white rose with a very high luster, and are well matched, and round, with a clean surface. The finest dark pearls are black with a metallic color. Pearls also come in pastel colors such as: pink, purple, yellow, golden, green, silver, and blue.
Among the colors of the South Sea pearl necklace, deep golden or white hues are the most desirable and valuable. The deeper the golden color, the more rare and valuable the pearls are. With Akoya pearls, the color and intensity of the color is a distinguishing feature of pearl quality. Low quality pearls often have brown or yellowish body color and do not have overtone or very light overtone. Pearls without overtone look flat. High quality pearls have deeper overtone color, because the intensity of color is the result of thick nacre and high luster. Pearl processing also affects pearl color. In Tahitian pearls, a green overtone is the rarest and the most costly, especially when it results in an intense peacock color.
However, no matter how expensive the pearl necklace, the most important thing is that the pearl necklace is fit for you. So you should choose a pearl color that is most flattering to your skin tone. The most popular colors are white and pink-rose because these shades flatter the widest range of skin tones. If you have fair skin, pearls with warm colors such as white or pink, golden, and deep cream flatter fair skin, as do pearls in dark colors such as black, gray and peacock. While if you have darker skin, light colored pearls such as white pearl, cream, peach, pink pearl, black pearl, light blue and silver flatter darker skins. These colors can highlight the skin tone.
