thanks folks for your kind thoughts. The jeweller found me another box but it had mikimoto in the lid so i didn't feel able to use it....so I stuck with the one I got off the internet which at least felt more authentic. she was really pleased with her pearls and we are now going for a meal to...

thanks for your kind replies and great ideas. I luckily stumbled upon another 1930s pearl necklace in a box online, they guaranteed next day postage , the box including necklace was very reasonable, so I've swapped the cheaper necklace with the one I got for Rachel. The box isn't quite as...

Hi wendy thanks for your reply I can't remember if it was a named box I just remember it was dark blue velour with the raised collar for the necklace to go round, so maybe I can't claim too much :( It's such a shame they look less special somehow in the modern carboard :( Elizabeth

Hi Wendy they have not offered me anything apart from the cardboard modern box which they initially said was a temporary measure :( I have no idea where to look now for a replacement. Do you think I should ask for some compensation then? Elizabeth

Hi Bluesea I think they are really beautiful and very special Beth

Hi folks I've not been online for a while, and hope everyone is keeping well. I am asking for help finding a vintage or antique box for an 80 year old pearl necklace. I am willing to pay if anyone has one for sale. I recently bought this necklace for my daughters 21st birthday and the jeweler...

Hi I'm quite a newbie here but would love a link to look at these exotics if that is possible. I have no real idea apart from reading threads on here what constitues an exotic apart from the comch, abalone etc shown on the PP web site. I am a new convert to pearls probably because I'd never...
