Is Honora jewelry real pearl?
1 Answer

Yes, Honora jewelry is real pearl. The American jewelry maker produces pieces out of freshwater cultured pearls. A cultured pearl is a real pearl, but it isn't the same as a natural pearl, which mollusks produce on their own. Instead, cultured pearls develop inside mollusks with the help of some human intervention. Naturally occurring pearls are actually very rare, so many high-end jewelry companies utilize cultured pearls in the same way that Honora does. Shop a variety of Honora pearl jewelry on 1stDibs.
