12-13mm & 13-14mm Baroque Earrings


Pearl culturing gets ever more sophisticated but sometimes the mollusc just says 'blow this, I'm doing my own thing'. The result can be a large baroque pearl, familiar to the Romans and Elizabethans.

Cheap baroques have pits, cracks, holes, and miscolouration - flaws unacceptable today. These baroques have the uneven shape and surface of natural pearls, but not the defects of their poorer cousins.

teardrop pearls are measured across the pearls diameterLike teardrop pearls, baroques are measured across their width - not along their length.

Note: Whilst we match the earring pair as closely as possible, being naturally formed baroques, they won't be identical.


Large baroques display a beautiful, shiny, silvery lustre. In natural daylight, they might exhibit the legendary 'pearl orient' - a kaleidoscope of colours that shimmer on the surface like the rainbow effect seen on a large soap bubble.
