the general look is very nice despite the surface imperfections and by the look at the drill hole you can also determine how thick the nacre is.
Nice luster too, they are very round, that could mean that the nacre could be a bit thin but you have more than just this strand to change

Hi Jerin, I only own the 2nd strand, not the first unfortunately and they have not arrived yet. It is the first strand I am wondering about do you think they are akoya. The don't really look it to me. I do like them but not knowing what they are is a turn off. The seller is calling them Tahitian

What did they mean by "vintage"? They can't be very vintage.

Hi Caitlin,
I think you are talking about the top strand and I think they are plucking that statement out of thin air because the owner was 103 years when she died. Well that means very little
They said they "think" they are from the 50s or 60s. I doubt that is true. Sellers on eBay use it as a catch phrase, to pull the punters in.
What type of pearls do you think they are?
