Bought these in Belize, are they cfwp?

Hi again,

I was cleaning out my purse and totally forgot that I had bought these from a little boy in San Pedro Belize. In my defense I had had a few rum and cokes at the Palapa Bar, so my judgement wasn't the best. Haha. I paid 20 US for these. These are just like terrible quality cfw pearls right? I think I asked him if they came from Belize and he said yes but do you really trust a ten year old child selling jewelry in a third world country??? Let's be real. Anyway, here they are:



Thank you once again.

In a word, yes.

But the money was probably a big help to the little boy's family.

Oh yeah I'm not mad about it! Just wondering what the heck they were. I basically look at it like I donated 20 bucks to the kid. People in Belize are SO poor, I'm happy to see the ones that are out there hustling like that.

Twenty bucks for a fun necklace on vacation is not bad. I love rum and coke!
