Ooh! What are these lovelies?

The necklace is 36" double strand with around 332 pearls. Though horribly restrung at some point. Gritty to the teeth etc..
The drill holes are small, no flaking or chipping.

And this lavender bracelet. 63 pearls in a triple strand. Again, restrung, but they kept the original silver bits.

What are these wonderful pearls?

They all look like freshwater pearls to me, with lovely design. You will have lots of fun with these

 

[NYRose]

Thank you,Charlotta. Do they look like natural freshwaters or cultured? And its possible that they could have a fair bit of age on them.

 

[Charlotta]

Cultured and chinese I would think. I haven't ever heard about natural chinese freshwater pearls. Might be some. Mostly, unless I am mistaken, natural freshwater pearls are mostly found in rivers, and mostly protected due to over fishing.

They look like regular cultured freshwater pearls. The value is in having fun wearing them

Yes, and there are some "coin pearls" there in the mix
