What do real pearls look like?

Manmade pearls are round and smooth. Some people bite on the pearls because real pearls are pearl throughout whereas manmade are usually 'painted' with a covering and can be easily scratched. Real pearls are slightly heavier than manmade.---Real pearls can be perfectly round or misshapen. Pearls come in the following shapes:Round: Perfectly round within 2%.Semi-round: Round to the naked eye, yet slightly off round.Semi-baroque: Off round with no axis of symmetryBaroque: Irregular shape with no axis of symmetryCircle: Ringed with grooves covering at least 30% of the pearl's surface. The pearl has an axis of symmetry.Oval: An oval shape with axis of symmetry.Button: A button shape with axis of symmetry.Drop: A tear-drop shape with axis of symmetry.It can be very difficult for the consumer to distinguish between fake and genuine pearls. The shape is not a defining factor. The size can be, if the pearl is very large. The largest South Sea pearls rarely exceed 20 mm (3/4 inch).The easiest way consumers can determine whether or not a pearl is genuine is by conducting the tooth test. By rubbing a pearl against the biting edge of a tooth, one can feel the grainy surface of a pearl. It is important to have something to compare the test against- something plastic and smooth is a good comparable.The graininess comes from the way pearls grow. Pearls are composed of aragonite and calcite platelets that are concentrically lined in a hexagonical brick-like structure. These small platelets feel like a super-fine sandpaper when rubbed against a tooth, even when a pearl has been thoroughly polished.
