Shape

Black Pearls come in a wide range of natural shapes ranging from pear-shaped, tear-drop, button, mushroom, acorn, barrel, and baroque shapes. All the shapes of black pearls are considered desirable and marketable. Often the pear-shaped and baroque pearls are set in pendant designs, and the rounder pearls are used for rings and earrings. Round pearls are harder for the oyster to create and, therefore, they are more rare and more expensive.
