    pearls and sterling

    Boo, I have a lot of sterling silver jewelry, most of it Native American. I was advised many years ago to use plain toothpaste, because turquoise is very delicate and silver cleaners were too harsh. I gently massage the toothpaste onto the area with my fingers.

    Am I wrong?

    I guess I am lucky to have purchased a large baroque Tahitian strand from PearlParadise when I did. I bought a 13mm to 17.5mm at Christmas time. I was hoping to purchase a large Golden baroque (my favorite pearl shape) in the next year. Is that going to be possible? I prefer large!
