About The Pearl Market

In 2012 we celebrate our tenth birthday. It seems only yesterday that The Pearl Market was born - inspired by a visit to the original pearl market in Beijing.

An army of pearl sellers peer from behind counters laden with pearls of every size, shape and colour. When the market is quiet, stallholders doze peacefully behind their displays. Don’t be fooled though. Tourists have more chance of stepping over a sleeping wolf than passing a stall without the owner snapping awake.

Aside from the name we have no connection with the Beijing pearl market. Our pearls are sourced from the Far East and made into jewellery at our headquarters here in West Wales.

Our business philosophy is simple. To price competitively without compromising quality and offer great service. Many customers buy pearls as a gift. The last thing they want is to be embarrassed by poor pearls, cheap fittings, sloppy workmanship, cardboard jewellery boxes or late delivery.


We apply the same criteria to our own suppliers who must be equally committed to quality and customer service.

The last ten years has seen many changes – in the way pearls are cultured and the way they are sold. It’s getting harder and harder for customers to make an informed choice. Our beginners' guide has helped many people through the pearl buying maze and we’ll be expanding it in the coming months.

I haven't decided yet how we’ll celebrate our first decade in business but I’m pretty sure
it will involve a customer competition and some bubbly.
