Are cultured pearls worth any money?

1 Answer
Are cultured pearls worth any money?
Yes, cultured pearls may be worth money. Although they tend to be worth less than natural pearls, cultured pearls are still real pearls and can be worth hundreds to even hundreds of thousands of dollars. Potential selling prices depend on the color, size and quality of loose pearls, and ones set in jewelry may be worth more due to the pieces' ages, makers, types and styles. A certified appraiser or experienced jeweler can provide you with an estimated value for your pearls. Find a large selection of pearl jewelry on 1stDibs.
