I have never seen one of these before. It came with a pearl necklace I bought on ebay. The seller was a man selling them for a friend and he had no idea. How do you use it? I tried to attach it myself but it felt like I was going to break it. I figured I must have been doing something wrong. So...

I think they have to approve them first and then we will be able to see them. I'm not 100% sure, still new here but that's my guess. ~d

Thank you all so much. I will not let my MIL take these. LOL I hope everybody is having a great Holiday. Enjoy!

Wow PD, thank you for that information. I bought some pearls from a name brand call peyote bird from TJ MAXX. They had leather, silver and some pretty flourite stones on the bracelet too. It was really pretty but my MIL took it when she was here last lol

Thank you! Thank You! You all are so helpful :D I'm so glad they are real. I really like them, so I'm glad they are freshwater. Maybe they will last a little longer. They were $69, so a bit of a gamble but I couldn't beat the color. Thanks so much again for all of your kindness. I am totally...

Ugh! I just realized I might have gotten that infographic information wrong. I'm so sorry. I just went to look for it and now I can't find it. My apologies, Thank You Jeremy! I guess better turn in. Thank again for any help you can give me. ~d

Hi All, I have been buying pearls like crazy and I have found some really nice strands. I think I am getting much better at determining if they are real but the type is much harder for me. I think these are freshwater. I really love the colors and the luster? I think that is what you call the...

They are beautiful. I have never bought ringed pearls before but WOW do they look amazing in the larger size. I love buying pearls and beaded necklaces at TJ Maxx because they discount them so much. I'm waiting for them to mark down a pearl and jade bracelet they have had for six weeks now. The...

I saw some like this at TJ Maxx about a month ago. They are very pretty in person and now I know why they were some of the most expensive pearls there. :D They marked down quite a few pearl pieces recently. I bought a couple 100 inch for $20 a piece. I alway go there and buy mark down necklaces...

Yes, what a wonderful idea!

This is all very good information. Thank you for bring up an issue like this Pattye! I can understand the concern and why you would want to tell the owner of the pearls but I do agree with Wendy and GemGeek in this case. Sometimes you can open up a can of worms you don't want. I have been there...

What a lovely cross. It's very unique!

Very pretty! I love the color!

The PP video helped my a ton! That was the easiest way for me too and stringing all the pearls on the strand made it all go much faster. I am left handed and a bit uncoordinated. Once I figured out the best way to hold the knot down on the pearl, it was smooth sailing and as Caitlin said the...

I wonder if the diamond was put there to cover a hole. If that is the diamond on top.

I must say, I LOVE the way you all think ;) He has always hated pearls for some and I finally decided that that is his issue, not mine. I have always loved pearls. There is nothing else like them to me and I'm hooked now LOL. I wish you could have seen his face when I told him that pearl was...

Thank you all! Everyone here is so nice. I really do appreciate all the help and information I have learned on this forum. I think I have a slight pearl addiction :D I have bought so many lately that my husband asked me how many do I needed. LOL As far as my LO goes, for some reason he has...

Thank you all so much. I surprised myself, I actually enjoyed doing it and was determined to finish it that night. I thought I was over when I turned my back to answer the phone and realized my 5 year old had gotten ahold of it and was swinging it over his head like a lasso. But once I took a...

I am guessing Tahitian for the fourth one. Pearls are still very new to me but WOW! What a beautiful little family you have there.

I really wanted to restring the strand of akoyas I purchased from the resale shop but all I had was 8 pound white. I searched and found some but hadn't received it yet, but I really wanted to get it done. So I came up with the bright idea to double the 8, so I had four strands instead of two. It...
