or u not like Peking Duck, Wendy lol?

fresh waters in general grow in mussels and not in oysters.

Jeremy I arrive on Wednesday at 6.30 pm. Maybe I will be to late, unless you start a little later. Katbran, Wendy, it is for me an honor to be invited by one of the owners. The area is quite remote and has no WiFi, but I promise I will take photos. The flight from Singapore to Manado is 3.30...

Well Katbran, I have bought most of my pearls already before the Fairs. And after Hong Kong I go back to Bangkok and on the 5th of March via Singapore to Manado in Sulawesia northern Indonesia and then to the island Pulau Talisei to witness a harvest of Golden and White South Sea pearls. But...

I will miss you Katbran

Hope to see those who are going

I am going for 3 days from March 1-3, who else in going?

They are from 3 farms, 2 near Halong Bay in the North of from a farm near NaTrang north of Ho Chi Min city. They are from Pinctada Fucata oysters. 2-3 mm are more expensive than bigger akoya strands because they are labor intensive and a lot more pearls are needed. Standard size is also not 16...

I promised to show you a strand of the loose colorful akoya pearls, here a strand of 2-3 mm and a 5 mm and up baroque strand.

the strand is ready, 2-6 mm Akoyas

Judimcc6 My friend has 3 farms in Vietnam, near NaTrang and Halong . I have not been to the Halong Bay farm. Most of the pearls are cream, champagne and gold with also blue and the colors I show on the photo's. My main market is Europe.

Pearly Whites, The baroques come in 2-3,3-4, 4-5, 5 mm up

Size of first strands are 6.5-7mm here are also baroque akoya, before drilling

I know of one Vietnamese pearl farms having shops around Vietnam, one I have seen in NaTrang. The owners are all Japanese so they ship their pearls to Japan or in my case to Bangkok, where the Japanese have a pearl processing plant for South Sea, Tahiti and Akoya pearls.

Just harvested last week and are they not colorful?

With so many new pearl grads around, does that mean we now get new pearl traders also? Who needs supply? LOL

Amti, size ranges from 10 - 14/15 mm

As promised last week, the pearls suitable to make pairs. The South Sea 12.35 mm white/pink drop pearls are the best combo I saw for a very long time, took those along aswell, but that is a different story.

Think they are South Sea but they not come from the Philippines. Nice strand and the price is not expensive.

Think this forum is not really a place to market pearls hahaha
