I have a Wards Westernfield model 80 that I bought in the mid 90's from a family friend. She was over 90 years old and told me that her husband had bought the rifle new from Wards in 1936. npbanner@sbcglobal.net

Almost all freshwater pearls in the world wide market today are fresh water culture pearls from China. They are generally less expensive than similar sized Cultured pearls that are grown in Saltwater, but not always. There are effectively no natural pearls on the market, and there have not been many on the world wide market for at least the last 100 years.

They have pearls in their mouth because when a grain of sand get into their mouth saliva goes over it and over it and sometimes it takes many years to make but there is your pearl!
While white, and more recently black, saltwater pearls are by far the most popular, other color tints can be found on pearls from the oceans. Pink, blue, champagne, green, black and even purple saltwater pearls can be encountered, but to collect enough of these rare colors to form a complete string of the same size and same shade can take years.

Natural pearls are very rare. They are, in fact, much more rare than diamonds. There is no scientific study available that definitively shows how rare a natural pearl is, but many experts believe it takes approximately 10,000 mollusks to find one fine natural pearl. However, in areas of Central America, there are places where natural pearls are much more prevalent. It is believe this is due to a higher parasitic concentration. Cultured pearls are not nearly as rare. In fact, all the pearls we see today in jewelry stores are cultured pearls. The natural pearl industry all but died nearly 100 years ago. Cultured pearls are pearls grown on farms where pearl mollusks are nucleated and then tended for a period of time, eventually producing a pearl.
