Help! What did I buy?

[Boston92]

On a recent trip to the Philippines I bought a set of pearl earrings at greenhills (I know). As I was only in Manila a night I didn’t know where else to go. I know what I bought most likely aren’t SSP but could they not be freshwater? Any input would be greatly appreciated

It's harder to tell, now that there are bead nucleated FWP in large sizes. They could be SSP. They seem to be the cooler white that is more common for SSP. Did you pay SSP prices, or FWP prices?

They definitely appear more silver than true white to me at least. Paid SSP price I believe at $275 for the pair, knew the risk so took a gamble...
