Hi Landyray, Welcome to the forum. I agree, they would be from the 1990's or earlier as Pattye mentioned. A word of note though, there were some glass "pearls" made like this in the mid-late 90's as well. Try rubbing two pearls together to be sure. If the rubbing feels gritty they are real, if...

Hi Cathy, Mama loves her pearly bling. Just wanted to celebrate a precious moment with everyone here. Thank you everyone for letting me. Pearls bring their magic with them for those whose hearts are open. Much love,

So glad she still wears it. It radiates love and beauty.

Mama's Birthday was this week. Her dementia was in force until I showed her the "birthday tiara". She has such a reverence and love of pearls. Her Hospice team and the activities coordinator really wanted to make it special. They love her where she is. The aides and techs during shift change...

Hi Starlen, Beautiful fresh water pearls. They are side drilled instead of top to bottom length wise. Love the flat sides. These were quite popular in the mid to late 1990's. Very pretty.

Massrog, Thank you for the beautiful finds.

Hi Douglas, Thanks for the Chime in about Pearls from Mexico being used as well. That I didn't know. Agreed these photos are fantastic!

I'm coming late to this conversation. My guess is natural fresh water pearls were used. Before "over fishing" lakes, rivers and streams were awash with mollusc's that produced pearls across Russia and Europe.

Oh I would wear this in a heartbeat. Its lovely. may the person who ended up with have great great joy.
