Strand Round
What is the best place to purchase Freshwater Pearls online (to make jewelry with)?
I am starting up a bridal jewelry website, and am looking for the least expensive Round Freshwater pearls. I get some of my supplies from firemountaingems.com, but their round pearls are $25-35 a strand. Is there anywhere cheaper?
If you are looking for round pearls you are not looking in the right price range. Even at $25 to $35 per strand in a small size the freshwater pearls are semi-round, not round. True round freshwater pearls will cost you quite a bit more even wholesale. First and second 7-8 mm necklace grade is currently going for around 10000 RMB per kilo in China. Loose gem grade (the truly round material) is closer to 35000 rmb, or close to $200 per strand.
Your price range is in the beading grade range. Those are the pearls you will find from sources like Fire Mountain Gems, Integrity Pearls and Bella Findings.
There is a community of beaders on the forum at Pearl-Guide.com. They would probably be happy to help you find more sources of pearls.

Orange Celebrity Blog Round-Up 14 January 2010
It’s been a few days of tattoos and surprising party guests, and no mistake. First, David Beckham showed off his new body art following a game between his current team AC Milan and arch-rivals Juventus. The tat in question? A not-especially-cheery image of a blood-stained Jesus, apparently based on a painting called The Man of Sorrows. It’s a tribute to Becks’ late granddad though, so we’d best not be too snarky.
Still on interesting skin-based ink, news emerged that truly talentless twins John and Edward Grimes aka Jedward are hooking up with none other than Vanilla Ice for their debut single (a version of ‘Ice Ice Baby’, natch). Lest we forget, Vanilla has the phrase “wide open” tattooed across his fingers – no, we’ve no idea why either…
And the party surprise? None other than Cheryl Cole, who rocked up looking all fabulous like (with hubby Ashley) to Take That supremo Gary Barlow and wife Dawn’s 10th wedding anniversary bash at a London hotel. In fact, Chezza’s Girls Aloud bandmate Kimberley Walsh was there too, along with several other of Gary’s Comic Relief Kilimanjaro climb chums. Ain’t no mountain high enough, even when it’s freezing out, apparently!
Speaking of Mrs Cole, we actually felt sorry for her when she was spotted out with her hair in such a mess. Celebrity crises don’t usually upset us, but in this case we’d like to send out our sympathies to Miss Cole on occasion of this minor tragedy. Ashley seemed to be amused by the whole incident, as if it wasn’t as significant as his wife made out – shame on you Ashley.
Cheryl Cole’s hair normally looks full of body with not a strand out of place. She even has body guards looking out for her hair, as seen by the photos taken when she left Gary Barlow’s wedding anniversary party. Well she is the face of L’oreal, so needs to make her hair looks prefer – because she’s worth it. But then, aren’t we all?
