Synthetic is not a term used to describe imitation pearls. Synthetic, in the case of gemstones, is completely manmade, and it has to have the same structure, constituents, and chemistry as its natural counterpart. No cultured pearl is completely manmade. There is always human intervention, but the mollusk grows the cultured pearl. Of cultured pearls, only tissue-nucleated and keshis have the same structure, constituents, and chemistry as their natural counterparts, but they result from human intervention. So when the two criteria that determine a synthetic gem are applied, there is no cultured pearl or imitation that meets both. Therefore, no cultured pearl or imitation is a synthetic.
No they certainly should not, if your Pearls are peeling then I think you have to believe that they are synthetic
If you are asking is synthetic pearl real pearl, the answer is no. The very term synthetic means artificial, man-made. The closest thing is south seas or seashell pearl. the "pearls" are made of crushed shell which is then treated with a resin to stabilize and harden it into a solid mass. This mass can then be shaped,dyed, and polished to resemble real pearl. Most synthetics are painted or enameled glass or something similar. hope this helps. Actually, in terms of gemology the word "synthetic" is not used for pearl. The more appropriate term for it is "imitation". Synthetic word is used for those gemstones which are man-made and possess exact chemical, physical and optical properties that of a real gemstone. Therefore "imitation pearl" should be used instead of "synthetic pearl". And with this (imitation) term being used one can get the answer from itself.
Synthetic. It is completely man made.
The difference between natural and synthetic things are that synthetic things are not real. The definition for synthetic is: artificial; not genuine. Natural things are things that can be found in nature and is real.
synthetic is not a sustenance, it is a word used to describe substances that are man made. Some synthetic substances are flammable and some are not.

All precious stones come from rocks, but pearls are formed by oysters. Synthetic gemstones are made in factories.
