Generally a natural pearl is more valuable than a cultured pearl
of similar size because they are much rarer. These days nearly all
pearl jewellery is made from cultured pearls from pearl farms in
places like Darwin, Australia.

Cultured pearls are pearls which are created by a pearl farmer.
If you are looking for cultured pearl jewelry, which is much
cheaper then natural pearl jewelry, you can find them at most
jewelers, or even professionally appraised strands or earrings at
your local Costco's jewelry department.
