    Kobe Pearl Auction Goes Virtual - March 2022

    Really inter, most auctions just toss a photo of a group of pearls up and give a reserve … this is much more sophisticated. I assume they have a concierge who speaks English ? I’m pretty sure I picked up “ thank you” lol

    Purple fade

    That's a real shame ! Im sure under the circumstances you could return them no matter if it's been a few years. No seller wants a customer to buy something that won't last and have wasted their money I'm sure they thought there was no problem. It's just been the past few years that it was...

    Purple fade

    Wow that's some fading ! I was always concerned about the darker colours and had asked at Paspaley when I was there doing my wholesale shopping . They told me at the time , about 4 years ago, that the colourful freshwaters were dyed and some colours held up better than others. Since then I've...

    Need help from experts - what happened to this WSS pearl?

    I've seen these cracks before and always assumed it happened quite some time earlier as they seemed well under the surface. I did have one drop that I didn't sell as the crack seemed closer to the surface and I was concerned that if dropped it would crack further.

    Advice to keep a knotted pearl facing forward?

    Bernadette, you say that you use multiple fine threads when you knot . I'm not sure I've ever seem a video of multiple thread knotting ( more than two) and think it would be wonderful if you could do a short video for PGF on how to do this . The more expert videos (and I know we have a...

    Exactly ! That drives me crazy . They hold them for days and then send them to Australia Post who then has to 'process' them and after several days will deliver. Grrrrrrrr Easily takes a week. And if you have paid for express.......

    So annoying !!! I feel for you guys ! I am stuck using DHL for anything expensive and international. As our borders have been locked down for a year there are very very few flights and very very limited destinations. Therefore if I mail using Australia Post , it leaves Adelaide after two...

    My first and very fun Tahitian rope

    Looks great ! I usually lay mine out on a board first then string them onto wire. That way I get a good feel for the finished look. Also easier to move things around if the colours and sizes are not balanced.
