Huge Pearl Selection
On the first floor of
Baigong Handicraft Museum near the
Beijing Hongkun International Hotel lies a large pearl store, which specializes in both
freshwater pearls and saltwater pearls.
As the shop attracts a number of foreign tourist groups every day, it gets the name “Group Pearl Store.”
Arriving at the store, I was pleasantly surprised to find several shop assistants separately introducing their products in English to some overseas customers.
Each assistant was doing her best to offer foreign friends a pleasant shopping experience.
In showcases and on shelves, I found a wide variety of pearl jewelry to choose from. The pearls are pure in color and come in different sizes.
All feature beautiful, creative designs. A string of necklace with big pearl beads cost around RMB 4,000.
Also, a necklace pendant in the shape of a cross caught my eye. The pearl was pure, soft white, and the four ends were made of gold. It was priced at RMB 1,883.
In the earring section, a pair of earrings made of shining blue pearl beads and 925 silver stood out over others. It cost 1,281 yuan.
For men, the shop also offers pearl ties, stickpins, and cuff links.
