What Is a Freshwater Pearl?

Freshwater Pearls get their name from where they originate: They form within mussels living in freshwater areas like lakes, rivers and even glaciers. With their beautiful shimmer and naturally occurring colors these pearls have gained great popularity over the years. Our Freshwater Pearl Jewelry Collection combines these stunning gems with other beautiful materials like yellow, white or rose Gold, sterling silver and glittering diamonds. The result is a collection of jewelry in which every piece is a true work of art. Another great thing about our Freshwater Pearl Collection is that it can stand on its own and be the center of attention or stack beautifully with other pieces you have. You can always mix metals and gemstones, because a pearl is timeless and modern, matching with anything and everything.

Choose a Pearl Necklace, Bracelet or Ring with Hawaiian Flair

Like all our jewelry, this collection features pieces inspired by Hawai’i, the place that Na Hoku has called home for a century. Many of these designs include nods to the Maile leaf and other Hawaiian cultural signifiers. Find a single Freshwater Pearl drop that speaks to you or see how playful one can be when mixed with other elements. No matter which design you choose, you can trust that it was made with the quality you would expect from Hawaii’s oldest and largest jewelry retailer and manufacturer.
