I'm certainly no expert. But, I do have two Tahitian necklaces of and one pair of earrings. It took me a while to find that first necklace. The lovely people at Pearl Paradise put up with all kinds of questions and exchanges until I found the strand that really spoke to me. What I learned in the process was that "peacock" is a much wider term than I had previously thought. In my head, I knew just what I wanted and I thought I was articulating it by saying "peacock". However, what I really wanted was a dark body color, tending toward green, with strong, rich peacock overtones. Eventually, I found a strand that I loved. But, it took some phone calls and some exchanges to get there.

Without seeing the actual pendant or earrings (I think after re-reading the post, the image of Carolyn's pendant is not the one you actually bought, but one you are using for comparison), it would be hard for our experts to say if the pearls would be considered peacock or not.

But, if you are not happy with the pearls, what kind of exchange or return policy does the seller offer? Maybe you can ask to exchange it for one with richer peacock overtones?
