Pearl Quality Control

At PearlGemCity, we take pearl quality seriously.
Our quality control procedures ensure that each freshwater pearl meets professional standards and is suitable for designers, jewelry brands, and retailers worldwide.

Section 1: Grading Standards

We use internationally recognized grading criteria for:

  • Shape (round, baroque, rice, Edison, etc.)

  • Size (measured in mm)

  • Color (natural and treated)

  • Luster

  • Surface quality

Each lot is evaluated before approval for shipment.

Section 2: Inspection Process

Every pearl undergoes a systematic inspection process:

  1. Visual check for shape and surface

  2. Measurement of size and tolerance

  3. Luster evaluation under standard lighting

  4. Color verification against approved samples

  5. Batch approval for wholesale readiness

Section 3: Surface, Luster & Shape

  • Surface: Minor natural imperfections are expected and noted

  • Luster: High reflection and clean nacre preferred

  • Shape: Strict grading ensures consistency across orders

Section 4: Sample Verification

Sample orders or approved reference lots are used as benchmarks for bulk production.
All bulk orders are inspected against these reference standards to maintain quality consistency.

Section 5: Packaging & Pre-Shipment Check

Before shipment:

  • Pearls are carefully packed to prevent damage

  • Pre-shipment inspection ensures matching standards

  • Documentation confirms batch grading

Section 6: Continuous Improvement

We constantly refine our quality control procedures based on:

  • Customer feedback

  • Supplier performance

  • Industry best practices

This ensures a consistent, high-quality supply over time.
