Edison is a freshwater pearl, and South Sea pearls are saltwater pearls!
Differences in origin:
Edison is made in China, and it is the first domestic patent for freshwater nuclear aquaculture! !
South Sea pearls, as the name suggests, come from the South Sea. They actually come mainly from the oceans north of Australia, the Philippines, Malaysia and the Indonesian islands.
The difference in yield:
This is actually the difference between freshwater pearls and seawater pearls - seawater pearls have a longer cultivation period and lower yield than freshwater pearls!
Differences in colors:
In addition to traditional gold and white, Edison also has special metallic iridescences such as deep purple, violet, and bronze! !
South Sea pearls are both South Sea gold pearls and South Sea white pearls that are world-famous! So its main colors are gold and white! !
The difference in size:
Speaking of Edison's "big size", it also makes it stand out from a kind of freshwater seedless cultured pearl ~ its general diameter is 10mm to 20mm The span, you must know that generally fresh water beads are only 5mm--10mm.
The general diameter of South Sea pearls is 8mm-15mm. Such a "size" is actually not small~
The difference in shape:
Both have Nuclear culture, so the roundness rate is relatively high, and it is difficult to distinguish the size of the two from the shape.
The difference in gloss:
This may also be one of the important differences between freshwater beads and seawater beads. Generally speaking, the luster of Edison is relatively soft, while the luster of South Sea pearls is relatively moist.
Differences in price:
The price of pearls depends on shape, size, gloss, quality, color, etc., so we cannot say whose price must be higher and whose price must be lower. However, under the conditions of "force majeure", the price of South Sea pearls is still higher than that of Edison.
