Truth in advertising...

I saw this in the window of a hotel jewelry store while shopping in Waikiki last week. After Jeremy's story in St. Thomas, I found this amusing and refreshing at the same time. I'm sure an uninformed tourist could mistake these beauties for real Golden South Sea pearls. It's nice to know there are ethical retailers in touristy places.

Amazing, albeit expensive. It's encouraging to see this kind of disclosure. Maybe they belong to AGTA.

Hope they thrive - they deserve to

Good for them! Still a wee high-priced though.

Wow. You don't see that everyday...
