    Does dyeing pearls lower their value?

    Tahitians come as dark as almost black to as light as silver. Here are a few threads about Tahitian colors so you can see pictures of various overtones: https://www.pearl-guide.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3228 https://www.pearl-guide.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3801

    What do you think of the bigger strand?

    Your local sporting goods stores may carry Power Pro in large spools. I know that Bass Pro Shop, Sport Authority, Gander Mountain all carry them. I've found them on Cabelas.com also.

    Thank you all. The indoor picture did the https://www.pearl-guide.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2379&highlight=Loot strand no justice. I got lots of compliments wearing it this trip, including from Margo Pearl staff. I love the barrel-shaped pearls and have not seen one like it. Jeremy's post #...

    Another clueless husband with good intentions

    I suspect this is her first strand of higher-quality pearls, as opposed to costume jewelry pieces which she may have already owned or none at all. Have you asked her subtly to get a hint if she would like to wear pearls? Will she be wearing this on special occasion only or daily? You can try...

    Tahitian keshi studs

    Try manapearl.com. They have them from 8mm to 12mm http://www.manapearl.com/shop/tahitian-pearl-earrings.html They ship from French Polynesia so return can be cumbersome just like purchasing from Chinese sellers on ebay. You can email and ask for more pictures if you want to be absolutely...

    Thanks for sharing the picture judimcc6. Nice to "meet" you Wild Onion. I recognize the pendant you got from Pure Pearls. You posted pictures here a few years ago in response to my Tahitian pearl shopping in Hawaii thread. Does anyone have more Tucson pictures?
