There are certainly admirable gems among the photos. Was Tom actively offering the pearls at the show, and if so has he fixed per carat or per piece pricing, or is he sitting back waiting for offers? As these pearls have been mentioned in the same 'breath' as the FW exotics offered today by Pearl Paradise, a little perspective may be in order…
