Thanks, Yemi and Linda! Emily didn't quite describe my feelings on the pearls accurately, though. I think I said that believing they were real was an exercise in faith that I was making for her sake. The "colder than room temperature" thing has me stumped (unless they're made of Vicks Vap-O-Rub and York Peppermint Patties), but I defer to your expertise. Thanks.

The short answer: YES, they are real. China has a long history of pearl cultivation, and pearls here are cheap for the same reason that everything else here is cheap. Obviously, they're not naturally-ocurring ocean pearls, but even experts are hard-pressed to tell the difference beetween Chinese cultivated freshwater pearls, and the expensive natural pearls. You can test if your pearls are real by rubbing the pearl on your teeth - it should feel grainy. Another test is to scratch it with a blade (it will dust off instead of crumble or peel). You can also tell because they will usually be colder than room temperature, and heavier than expected. I just figure it is probably cheaper to cultivate real pearls here than to manufacture fake ones. Most of China's pearls come from Zhejiang province and Hainan.

Chinese people seem to buy them as much as expats do.... I have concluded they are real too:) Ha! I also thought they couldn’t be real at those prices but then why could people continue to buy them?
