| I found these articles regarding multicolor pearl strand http://www.modernjeweler.com/web/online/Pearl-Gem-Profiles/Multicolor-Pearl-Strands/3$248
and circle pearls http://www.modernjeweler.com/web/online/Pearl-Gem-Profiles/Circle-Pearls/3$253
"Circle Pearls" is dated May 4, 2007 (going to Print Article option will show date of article). It was stated that Japan is going ga-ga over this trend. “Circle pearls are the world’s most for-sure pearl. Customers see the ridges in them and they don’t have to wonder if they’re man-made pearl-escent plastic. They can see at a glance these pearls grew inside an oyster.”
Can someone in Japan comment? I thought I read some posts recently that baroque/circle is still very new and/or rarely seen in Japan. Maybe Bluepawprint said that?
