Best Answer

If a pearl is deemed Freshwater pearl, chances are, it is real. Freshwater pearls are the most affordable pearls available. If the pearls are described as faux, shell pearls, imitation, or anything other than cultured Freshwaters, then they are fake. More and more vendors are popping up selling shell pearls. Pearls that are described as "shell pearls" are not real. They are made from a compound of ground up shell and are faux pearls.

How much does a real strand pink pearl necklace cost?

It depends on the size of the pearls, the length of the necklace, the quality of the pearls, who and where you are buying it from, etc. However, the necklace I own (a princess length pink pearl strand necklace) was around $2,500-$3,000. (But it also has a gold clasp with three (tiny) diamonds which added to the price.) For probably the best quality pearls buy Mikimoto pearls.

Is there a place to buy pearls upon entering one of the sections of the Great Wall of China?

Answer If you visit the most popular part of the Great Wall (Badaling) there are many street vendors selling all types of trinkets. Freshwater pearls are available there but they are of very low quality (very cheap as well). If you are that close to Beijing go to Hongqiao Market on Chongmenwen. The third and fourth floors are dedicated to pearls and you will find a complete range of types, qualities and colors.
