and somehow
unique but naturally they are not the only one. These days there are
some major players in the freshwater, saltwater, cultured and
natural peal business out of this certain branding was done,
especially by Japanese companies, they managed to get Izumi and
Akoya pearls a worldwide recognition. Japanese companies are very
good in establishing brands and in the marketing of it afterwards,
just think about all this electronic and camera giants and they also
did it in the jewelry business.
But since
the Chinese and Korean never sleep there is fierce competition.
There are also Tahitian pearls, usually the black ones but they are
very expensive, the thing is every time French people are involved
prices often grow into unrealistic figures.
The
companies handling pearls managed to get this round things into
various color such as purple, gold, silver, black, pink, rose and other. |
