Pearl Dreams is very sharp, as always! Ok, she just got me into antique ceramics...

Our expert, Pattye found it immediately. ::o

Pattye, you're very talented! Yes, you're right. The "plum south sea strand" was sold for US$160.50!

I believe it's an enjoyable course, how many of us envious your trip to Paspaley!

Thank you so much, Pearl Dreams, Jeremy and Pattye for your reply. It’s really disappointed they lied through their teeth. :rolleyes: Jeremy, I’ll remember "the BS factor of three" by heart! Pattye, I learn everything about pearls on this forum. You guys are my mentors! You’re right, Pearl...

It?s not unusual for eBay sellers to mislabel their pearls intentionally but this time is different. These two strands look like freshwater pearls but are labelled as follows: 1. Cultured Saltwater Black Pearl Necklace 7.5mm to 8mm 2. Cultured Plum South Sea Pearl Necklace 10.5mm to 11mm I had...

It’s quite common the sellers in China suggesting the scissors or smash test.

I didn't know the acetone in the nail polish remover can be used to test the pearls. I just love hanging around here.

They're really bautiful. Does the tag say how many carat is the diamond?

Pearl Dreams, this is very helpful review tutorial. Does knotting without tweezers shorten the knotting time? I saw the color chart on PriceScope, they have a wide selection of colors. Your strands look beautiful with the matching thread. You'll inspire many Tahitian ladies to change their...

Hi! Sandra. Beautiful sunshine smiles and pearls. I've the same thought as Katbran.

Wow! Beautiful necklace. Metallic fire goddess?

Wow! They carry various types and sizes of gimp I had never seen them before. As long as the color doesn't come off, it's fine for me. Thanks again, Pearl Dreams.

Hi! Pearlinda. If I'm getting Freshadama, I don't want them to turn off round. I guess I just have to take them off everyday. I'll check out your Etsy site, thanks for the heads up. How many percent of deep gold SSP is available in an average harvest? I wonder why the gold lip oysters are so rare.

Thanks a lot for your reply, Pearl Dreams. Did the color of your French wire come off or tarnish? Are the French wires on firemountings gem.com made if real gold and real silver? You know where to get what, you're awesome!

Hi! Pearl Dream, I'd like to seek your advice on the tools. I found this knotting tweezers at my local store but I'm not sure whether it's the same pair as Pearl Dreams', will it work the same? The store has french wires too but they aren't not made of 14k white gold or yellow gold. The shop...
