 Baroque pearls are mostly irregular in shape, appearing rough in contour, asymmetrical and not round. Baroque pearls are grown from saltwater and freshwater shells. Baroque pearls are free-forming inside the shell particularly growing in the mantle of the shellfish, thus their shapes are not uniform. The shellfish is a living organism whereas the protecting attachment is called the pearl earring shell.
