Bethann -- so sorry to hear this, very disappointing.
I glad you gave me the heads up becasue I am sure would have posted something myself. I did not know about the pearl policy at all -- so many other types of jewelry are described/discussed there.
It is just puzzling -
- pearls in no way replace or interfer with a person's love of diamonds. However, so far (I am a new member) I am finding this forum very interesting and informative.
Love thoose pearls.....
