Natural Saltwater pearls...

Hi,

The usual recommendation is to watch eBay for sales of vintage akoya strands. Look at the prices of the ones that actually sold, not what they are listed at. Personally I also follow the prices at the local on-line auction houses. You might have some.

Value is such an abstract thing. Anything is worth what people are willing to pay for it. Someone on this forum bought a vintage akoya strand in a thrift store for $12, I believe. On the other hand I follow one on eBay that is listed at $200.
