My brother recently came across a quahog pearl while eating dinner. I have attached a few pics with it next to a quarter. Seems to be a really nice size and color. Not sure what to do with it. Do folks have jewelry made with them?

Not a heck of a lot of value there but a neat story. Some just hang on to them as keepsakes and others have them mounted as jewelry.
 
That is a really cute quahog pearl. Great color! If it isn't too cooked, it should be hard enough to mount , but don't drill it. Hold it with prongs or a basket type setting.
