	Pearls - Pearl Necklaces - Freshwater
		Freshwater Pearls Freshwater pearls are farmed in freshwater and are grown in mussels.
		Freshwater pearls are nucleated with a small piece of mantel tissue instead of a bead nucleus which is used in saltwater pearls, which results in a pearl with more nacre, or more pearl, and less core material.
		Freshwater pearls are typically cheaper because freshwater mussels are larger and can produce up to 40 pearls at a time, whereas saltwater oysters are smaller and can only produce one to five pearls at a time.
