    Mississippi river pearls?

    Hi everyone, A friend who knows I have been on the hunt for Mississippi River pearls sent me some pics of a strand we think might be some. I can tell they are dirty, but do they look like river pearls or are they imposters masquerading as something old? Thank you

    Pearl Paradise keshi strands

    haven't posted in a LONG time, but I was curious if anyone got a PP tahitian keshi strand and what the color was? Is there a color choice if you contact them or all they all about the same? Thanks.

    Did you get your exotics yet?

    All I can say for those who were disappointed about their pearl colors is take them away from the black velvet case:D When I first opened mine I was taken aback by the lack of color difference, but the second I took them out of the case the colors just popped and the orient was amazing. Held...

    This is a question for Jeremy, you had mentioned you couldn?t find more pearls for the 12 inch strand, I was wondering what made it different from the other multi strands in the offering that more couldn?t be found? I am awaiting it?s arrival tomorrow so I haven?t seen it yet, but was it color...

    Did you get your exotics yet?

    Got word my pearls should arrive on 2/20, which is tomorrow for me. I can't wait! I'm curious to see what shades are on my multi strand and to see if the peach/pinks are a goldeny in person as they looked on screen. I'll have to see what I can do about pictures when they get here. I'm not...

    Did you get your exotics yet?

    Those are really pretty pearls. I can't wait to see mine, but I think it's going to be awhile if there's a stringer back up since the 12 inch strand I bought needed some extra work.

    If the 16 inch strands knot out to around 18 inches, is it safe to assume knotting adds 2 inches? That would make my 12 inch 14 inches and wearable w/o an extender. Mia is going to email me with some ideas so I'm waiting to hear what they come up with.

    Did you get your exotics yet?

    Thanks for the congrats. I can't wait to see it. I'm hoping to have it strung with an extender so I can wear it as a necklace. I didn't notice it was 12 inches at first, I just loved the look. Afterward I could be found in the office measuring my neck with a piece of string I found:p

    Did you get your exotics yet?

    I think, and I stress the think, I got 2 of the one of a kind strands. Am bummed I missed that dark lavender, but I think I got the 12 inch multi (which I emailed to ask if it could have an extender to fit my 14 inch neck or be turned into a double strand bracelet) and Fen240 that says it's...

    Pink Freshwater Pearls

    I see I was beaten to it. I will warn you these really didn't photograph well, which is why I think they didn't sell as well as the white and lavendar baroques, but I am very pleased with mine.

    Pink Freshwater Pearls

    I bought the untreated baroque CFWP from P. Paradise and they are truly pink, but not dark. The are the prettiest pale pink and parts are so lusterous they look like glass with hints of blue! These pearls didn't look pink in the pictures, but in person they are pink. I bought a "pink" strand...

    Does anyone know if the very glossy pearls in the shipping by Christmas sign on the P. Paradise site are the exotic freshwaters?

    Biwa pearls from 1930-1940s

    I'm not sure how big your pearl is, but that 9 carat diamond was about the size of a nickel. It did not fill the bottom "bowl", just the top. You certainly have a mystery piece. Antiques Roadshow coming your way anytime soon? :D
