Then, a couple (towards the tip of the pen) have strong pink overtone; are these from Maxima 'South Sea' too?

Besides, the size range of the rounds seems unusual for a single type of cultured pearls. Are the smallest round keshi?

Lots of questions...
These are all nucleated and they all came from the same local. Just outside Broome. And I don't mind the questions. I'm captivated by pearls like the rest of you.
