如果其他影响因素都相同,直径越大的珍珠价值往往越高。如
果珍珠的直径超过了 8 或 9 毫米,那珍珠的价格也会随之飙升。不
同种类的珍珠大小各不相同。像是在刚开始我们提到的有珍珠皇后
之称的的南洋珍珠,直径往往都是最大的。
If everything else is equal, the larger the pearl, the more
valuable it is. As the size reach the 8 - 9 mm or above, pearl
prices tend to increase much higher. Different varieties of pearl
come in different sizes. Southsea cultured pearls are the largest.
常见的珍珠可大致分为四种形状:正圆形、近圆形、半异形、
异形。价格较高的珍珠形状一般为正圆形,大家普遍认为圆形的珍
珠能更好折射出光芒,淋漓尽致地展现珍珠的美。其他形状的珍珠
也有自己的特点,如果用想象力结合精湛的手工制做出来的珍珠饰
品,也是非常吸引人的。
Pearl experts generally divide pearl shape into four main
categories: Round-Spherical, Off Round, Semi-Baroque and
Baroque. Perfectly spherical pearls and symmetrical drops are
the most valued. The perfection of a round pearl is considered
most suited to showing off a pearl’s innate beauty. However, other
shapes can be quite unique and can be created into interesting
jewelry pieces.
