Wondering what kind of pearls I bought at the thrift store this morning. They are on gold wires (I can just barely make out 585 stamped on them). They are really pretty! Quarter for scale.
Thank you! I figured they were freshwater - I love them, they’re a good daily pair for me. They may not be anything super special but for $10 I think I did ok. �� Adding an ear shot for fun!
I'll just flip that photo for you... sometimes it helps to resize photos before uploading them.
For $10, you absolutely did fine! And I agree, they are freshwaters.
Just one precaution...I had a pair like that, on just that sort of ear wire, and one earring fell out of my ear and was lost. I never lose hook earrings, but the wires were just so thin that it slipped out unnoticed.
I recommend using silicone grips on the back of the hook. They're easy to find, even Walmart has them.
