I did a bit of research on the difference between the freshwater pearls and the saltwater
Akoya pearls. Besides being less in the price, the freshwater pearls are more durable and are easier to care for. The downside difference also is that the freshwater pearls are not as uniform in color and shape as the saltwater. So for my purchase I upgraded the pearls to AAAA quality with an uptick in price. And they are perfect and beautiful-uniformly white, uniform in size and shape. I chose the adjustable length in the chain which I recommend to go with different necklines. Being more durable, there is no chance that I will wear them out from overuse because for now I choose my outfits to go with the pearls!
