Some better pics I got, I really love them I’d recommend the 7.5inch strand specifically because it’s their medium size and the 8 inch I got with one extra pearl on it the quality was lower on them, I’d go with 7.5inch pearl paradise word of advise

My first strand.

It just screws on and I have some foam and felt under it to make up for the extra space it presses against the glass

Oh my Gosh. I found this baby cherrystone clam inside one and this concept is just incredible, I’m hoping to find a whiter shell but what do you think, does it look nice? Edit: added a pic of the shell flipped the other way I like it!

Thanks BWeaves I just got the most perfect set in it it’s a 316l stainless memory locket from Amazon if anyones interested in putting their pearls in one! Also, I was just 13 when he gave me the pearl, he probably didn’t know the significance of it and that it’s called a quahog pearl. 23 now and...

Probably not making a ring, it’s apparently too fragile but I found a really nice locket and this is more appropriate for the pearl to me

Great news! I’m getting the pearl set in a 14k yellow gold weddingband, plain 6mm, 6.3 grams is the weight on it and it’s a really nice price I couldn’t refuse it’s gonna look like this Edit: The ring was too risky to make and suggested it not go on one

I went to a few jewelers so far unfortunately the rings were too heavy and out of my price range but I found out I’m a perfect Size 10! This little case is where it will live for a while until I find something I can afford!

There’s just one more thing you forgot to mention, we’re on the east coast so this is most definitely a Quahog Pearl from a littleneck! Worth more I’m assuming? This is with natural Sunlight

I’m not familiar with what a flame is I’m brand new to pearls due to this heirloom

Just ate 50 Little Neck clams no luck but here’s another photo shows it’s shape and shine, It’s a lemon shape the more I looked at it

No idea on the type of clam, he was on the east coast and it was probably a little neck or cherry stone but I’m thinking little neck

Thank you Steve, I’m definitely going to be buying clams every weekend now what’s the best type of clam for pearls my Wegmans has little neck, cherry stone and steamers

If I had to describe what it looks like under light in real life I would say it looks very shiny/reflective, very Very white so no signs of yellowing after 40+ years and a tiny bit opaque which you can’t really see in the photos but it looks good in person. As you told me the price per ct is...

I have here my grandfathers 1.125 ct Clam Pearl he found eating a clam 40+ years ago. I am new to clam pearls What is the value of it and is it a flame? It’s a Perfect egg shape

Got this from my belated grandfather who was eating clams one day 30+ years ago and found it! It weighs EXACTLY 225mg or 1.125 ct which is a pretty cool number because it’s 11(2) then 25 for both. It’s about 7mm in length and It’s very special to me I am planning on setting it in an 18k gold...
