These pearls have also been found in Arkansas in the Arkansas River. I know because my grandfather once found one while fishing.

Perhaps you have a wedding coming up soon and would like a set of matching pearl jewellery made?

Melinda,

Thanks for sharing about your grandfather finding a pearl in Arkansas. That region was a big pearling district and famous for its natural freshwater pearls. Some people still market these pearls.
