Thanks for replying Jeremy. I just measured them, and the bracelet looks like it's right around 7.5mm. The necklace is around 7mm. I measured using a clear flexible ruler, and I think it's pretty close. Answers my question.

Thanks airdancer! Thanks for the info about roundness. I didn't know if they were supposed to be "eye spherical." I have an eagle eye, so I'm more apt to notice shape. I start the GIA Graduate Gemologist on campus program in May, so hopefully this eagle eye will pay off!

Oh, and they are spherical from a distance just not appreciably more than the AAA.

The luster is beyond beautiful and the orient/rose overtone is so lovely. Ah freshwater pearls!

Thanks!
