Second: Place pearl in your palm of the hand and weigh it. Genuine pearls will feel heavy while the false is light except the fake pearls made ​​of glass beads.
Third: If the pearl has been perforated, you can use a magnifying glass and look at the edge of the hole if the original pearl where the edges look smooth and sharp, while a fake will look rough and uneven.

Fifth: Observe your pearl is there a line / blemish, most genuine pearls have at least one line / blemish, defect false or not entirely smooth. (note most of the original pearl condition was like that, but if you find your pearl there is no defect at all but if the test No. 1-4 has been done and show its authenticity it is better to make sure you come to the experts for examination by X-ray to determine original or not.)

Sixth: The Pearl of the original is much more expensive than the fake.

While the natural pearl oysters obtained from the wild and is now a natural pearl is extremely rare because of its rarity. Since each shellfish living in the wild is not necessarily exist because the process of entry of pearls a stranger object in the body shells are not made ​​by man may be the entry of foreign matter such as sand or other objects that inadvertently included in these shells and there was the process of pearl.
