*Cultured Pearls, both Freshwater and Saltwater, are Real Pearls. 
Most Pearls sold by Fine Jewelers are Cultured Pearls.
They are grown under controled conditions inside of oysters and freshwater molusks. 
The controled conditions produce more consistant size and shape pearls than
those grown by accident, by implanting a piece of shell wrapped in the tissue from another
oyster or mussel inside the oyster, which causes a pearl to grow around it.

Also Available:

Pewter rosary with 8mm glass pearls and traditional chain link construction with crucifix/center on #1 $53

Silver Plated wire wrapped rosary with Swarovski Crystal pearls and crucifix/center from #4 $153

Swarovski and Glass pearls are not real pearls, they are immitations made with a pearlized coating. Swarovski Crystal pearls are made by a process that makes them much more resistant to peeling than other types of glass immitation pearls.

You can tell the difference between a Real Pearl and an immitation by rubbing it on your teeth. 
A Real Pearl will feel gritty.  An immitation will feel smooth.

NOTE: There are over 2,000 varieties of Coral around the world. It is formed by the Calcium Carbonate secretions of small sea creatures called sea polyps, some of which are free swimming and some of which are anchored to other material in the Coral Reefs. This Coral from the Pacific Coral Reefs is naturally grayish white. It is usually bleached and then dyed pale pink to vivid crimson red, giving it the same appearance as more expensive Italian Coral, which is naturally colored from the Mediterranian Sea. The Italian Corals rarely grow bigger than 3-4mm, which is why it is rare to find larger size beads of Italian Coral.
