Hi there Sam.
I feel as if you are not posting with true interest, but more in a "spammy" way.
Please reply with intent.
Hi Doug.
I have read a lot about UV light on this forum which can give us info about whether pearls are being treated . Can u tell me where we can obtain these UV lights and is it safe for us to use it ? Thank You.

Sure thing! I purchased a few over the years. The newest one has LED light and saves on battery!
I've purchased them from specialized vendors...but I've gotten better prices on places such as Amazon!
I like Jewelmer Pearls had my first simple white SSP stud earrings and simple pendant in 2016. Since then bought the gold stud and pendant and ring. I am planning to get pearl gold strand then I plan to stop buying already. That is all. Thank you for educating things I learned in Pearl Guide.
Hi Jeremy,I have these jewelry bags called prezerve,they are meant to preserve sterling silver, so it won’t tarnish for up to 25 years. I keep my pearls in these bags because I don’t have a lot of space for storage.Is this a safe way to preserve my pearls or should I find another way,? Do you make anything like it but for pearls? I’m concerned that air does not flow.Can you please advise?

We have a large stock of Akoya pearls in all sizes …..

They don't have the pearls to fill their program requirements and prices in Asia have pushed up beyond their selling prices in many cases when the pearls are available. It's a tough time to be in the wholesale business ...

If you know anyone looking for lower priced commercial Akoya - please send them my way. We have a big inventory. We have been selling back to Japan recently (we sold 100 plus strands last week) - but I think I would get better prices in the USA! Fine goods are very slow but they are fetching ridiculous prices.

Can you send email me your inventory and pricing (jeremy@pearlparadise.com)? I can share it with the board of the CPAA. We only deal in Japanese akoya goods, so I don't personally have any need for Chinese, but the wholesalers with chain jewelry store and department store programs are in a world of hurt right now.
Hi Douglas, I hope you are getting back to normal after your procedure! Would you please give me your assessment of the pearl I posted? I haven't received it yet, but it is approx. 19x14x14mm. do you think it would make a decent enhancer? Are they relient enough for caual wear?
Thanks,
Roger
Hi there!
I believe I can help you. Let me try!
You have to click on this icon:

A small "Drop-Here" box will show up and you will be able to drag an image from your file folders into it, then just edit the size (if you want to).
Please let me know if this works for you

Hi Douglas...I did see that icon but when I click on it I can only attached https:// (urls) no files from my computer (this is in private conversations). Like here there is an icon at the bottom that says 'attach files'...I can attach any file on my computer but with the other one, doesn't work.

Ok, that's weird. Maybe it's your browser? Have you tried another browser? Chrome? Edge?
I am loving your tiny Tahitians! You got the cream of the crop!
Douglas, What year did you and your partners start your pearl farm? Just curious, Wendy Fairchild

I missed seeing you at Sarah's "Pearls by the Bay" event.

WOW! You must have been so excited with this first harvest, and those ever since. I wish I could have come, and tried unsuccessfully to watch online. I did see the photos on this forum though. It looks like the venue and the presenters were wonderful...

Hello and welcome! Are you asking about the necklace you are wearing in your photo? We'd love to help if you can post a photo of the necklace on a white paper towel or white napkin; it helps us see the pearls more clearly.
Hi Jeg!
Could you please send me one of the photos you are trying to upload to my email?
Just so I can analyze it (size, dimensions, pixel density) and assess what could be causing the issue please?
My email is dougmclaurin@gmail.com

THANK YOU!
Hello, I am new in this group. I'm planning to buy south sea pearl earrings for myself and my mom but I don't know how to identify real ones. I've contacted an online seller based in the Philippines and she sent me photos. I am hoping that you could confirm that my first purchase are real SSP. Thanks
