Black Freshwater Cultured Pearls

Please select the color of pearls you are interested in to narrow your search.

A timeless string of pearls is one essential piece of jewelry that will never go out of style. But if you prefer something more unique than the usual white pearls, a string of cultured black pearls is a great alternative. These edgy black freshwater pearls have the same iridescent finish as traditional pearls, but their rich black color is something that everyone will notice. You're no average wearer, so make sure your jewelry reflects that with head-turning black freshwater pearls and black baroque pearls.

At American Pearl, you'll find all the best-quality black pearls around. The truly mesmerizing black iridescent body color truly comes to life on each pearl's near-perfect surface. Coming from the Hyriopsis cumingii mollusk, these exceptional black pearls are as striking as they come. Find the perfect black freshwater pearl necklace, whether you like a classic single-strand or a gorgeous triple strand, at American Pearl.
