Philippine pearls within reach

Some ladies in the know go to their favorite tiangge to buy pearls, but now many have discovered the wealth of choices Kultura carries in its stores.

Among the kinds of pearls to be found at Kultura are freshwater pearls with their whimsical shapes, distinctive surface texture and warmth of luster. Tahitian pearls come by their dark color naturally; while Baroque pearls have an irregular non-spherical shape. Of course, there are the South Sea pearls, the Rolls Royce of pearls, the largest and most valuable pearls grown today.

As part of its 20th anniversary celebration, Kultura showcased these pearls as worn by Marian Rivera. The collection includes the following:
