Pearl Diver: Science and Diversion
Welcome pearl aficionados!
This newly-named Forum invites deeper “Dives” into the whys and wherefores of the pearl production process, be it natural or cultured.
It may get technical at times, at others unabashedly esoteric.
No question or comment is out of bounds as long as it relates to pearls. Contributions and advice from members, the pearl trade, and the pertinent specialties of Marine and Material Sciences are most welcome.
Curiosity is the Pearl Diver’s mantra!

Hi everyone. Please help identify this necklace. It has a Mikimoto box, pouch and booklet looks old. chain is 15 in. Clasp marked with M SIL and Sterling. Bail has an M and S. I cannot find another one like it anywhere so have no idea if it is real or what it may possibly be worth. Pearl is creamy white 7 1/2-8mm, looks pretty round, it is gritty when rubbed against another pearl. Pendant approx 1 1/2in

Hi. I'm a pearl seller in Lancashire and a former (retired) academic (teaching law). What can I do to help and I would love to see the dissertation when finished. Email me at wendy@pearlescence.co.uk
