Basra Pearl is a highly precious variety of the natural pearl gemstone originated from the Basra region of Persian Gulf. The marine ecosystem of this region got depleted in the early 19th century which created a halt in the natural pearl production in the Basra region. Basra ka Moti gained huge popularity for its color and smooth texture which further increased with its rarity.

Basra Pearl Quality

Many gem dealers consider Basra Moti stone as the cream of the pearl market, which is unfortunately a myth. In reality, Basra Pearls are as beautiful as the natural pearl from any other origin. This gemstone is famous due of its legendary origin, not for its exceptional beauty. So, like other natural pearls, Basra pearls are also analyzed by the Size, Shape, Color and Surface Texture.

    • Size

      – The size of natural pearl largely depends on the diameter of pearl nucleus (irritant), thickness of nacre layer (the fluid secreted by the mollusk) and the duration for which the pearl remains inside the mollusk’s body. Since, the nacre layer secreted by Pinctada radiata (mollusk that forms Basra pearl) is thin, the size doesn’t increase even after the formation of multiple layers. Therefore, the original Basra Pearls in big sizes are rare to find and are quite precious.

    • Shape

      – As per the rule of thumb, rounder is the pearl, higher will be its market value. But Basra Pearls are mostly found in odd shapes like pear, drop, baroque etc. Therefore, round or nearly round Basra pearls are considered highly valuable.

    • Color

      – Pure white Basra Pearl is regarded as a highly sought-after variety. However, finding a natural Basra Pearl in pure white hue is nearly impossible. This is because they are extracted years ago and loses their pure hue with time. The original Basra Pearl appears creamish white in color, sometimes with tints of yellow or pink.

  • Surface Texture

    – The quality of outer layer lends luster and shiny to the pearl gemstone. Basra Pearl with smooth, clean and blemish free surface, displays a slight rainbow-like sheen. The presence of pits, grooves, black spots and blemishes degrade the quality and market value of Basra Pearl.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose.

There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable.
