    The Hong Kong Show Starts Today

    A day in China

    Pearls themselves don't have an odor. If you drill pearls however the process of drilling gives off an odor of burning bone. It's the heat and calcium dust that create the odor.

    A day in China

    Baskets are pretty inexpensive in China. The pearls however are another story. The pearls in the basket are pretty good quality. I wouldn't want to guess from here. I don't blame you for wondering though because they do look nice.

    Hong Kong March Show - anyone going or went last year? Suggestions on Tahitians?

    Hi Silvia, I will be at the show. I don't miss either of the HK shows if I can help it. If you are going my best advice is to take your time and look around. You can get excited and buy too quickly. I always try to meet up with any of the PG family while we are there. It is customary for us...
