Roaming Tahitians

[waimeamomi]

I hope this is permissible, if not I'll take the wet noodle beating. A former student of mine just dropped by the market with bags of Tahitian pearls her father had sent her from Tahiti. She has been making some jewelry, but has run out of time and resources. She left me 3 bags of different sized pearls, mostly B-C-D grade, but almost all interesting in some way. Some definitely could be set in a way to have a very nice piece, and others might be best for practice drilling. I can't use most of them because I have well exceeded my limit, but if anyone is interested they are going by the bag and I will send pics (I may post some later). Just PM me.

Coluld you find out from your student where is the best place to buy reasonably priced lpearls in Papeete?

I don't think she can help with that. Her Dad lives there and sends them to her, and she's not sure where he gets them on the island. I asked her about contacts, but she doesn't know and she doesn't go there herself.
