Not an Appraisal, Grading Certificate, or Financial Advice

JewelPearl’s calculators — the strand length and bead count calculator, the necklace length calculator, the pearl weight (momme) calculator, the pearl value estimator, the pearl grading scorecard, and the pearl size recommender — produce general estimates. They do not constitute an appraisal, a grading certificate, or financial advice, and no output is an official valuation or an independent grade. The figures they return are planning aids, not guarantees. For anything with real money riding on it — a purchase, a resale, or an insurance valuation — consult a qualified, independent appraiser or a reputable gemological laboratory.

You Supply the Prices, Grades, and Measurements

Pearl prices depend on type, size, grade, origin, and the state of the market; grading standards differ between sellers and between pearl types; and sizing and length conventions are guides to proportion, not rules. Because of this, our tools ask you to enter those figures — a base price, type and grade multipliers, a pearl diameter, a strand length — rather than assuming a single market’s numbers. A result is only as accurate as the figures you provide, and it is your responsibility to confirm the correct, current values for your situation.

Why Real Figures May Differ

An estimate can differ from what you see in the market because of:

• Pearl type & origin: freshwater, Akoya, Tahitian, and South Sea pearls sit at very different price tiers, and origin and treatment affect value.
• Grade nuance: luster, surface, shape, nacre, colour, and matching interact in ways a single score can only approximate, and graders weigh them differently.
• Measurement: self-reported diameters, lengths, and weights, plus rounding and the difference between an estimate and a scale or caliper reading.
• Market movement: supply, season, and demand shift prices over time.

Value and Grade Are Estimates

The value estimator applies your own base price and multipliers; it contains no market prices. The grading scorecard is a structured self-assessment weighted toward luster, not an independent certification. Treat both as tools for comparing options and sanity-checking a quote, and seek professional advice before a purchase or valuation that matters.
