Yes, Caitlin. Those were completely unbleached. They were nice, but I could have made them even nicer.

They do not all have to be abiyadh. There is a lot to learn when one wants to bring back the old pearl standards. Anyhow, the freshadamas that I got from you were not deproteinized and thus probably not bleached.
I hate to tell you this, Zeide, but I believe I sent you one of the 8+ strands - they were all bleached. The only non-bleached freshadama were about 50 strands of the 7-8mm.

Well, I may be crazy, but just got a call from someone on the ground at JCK and I am now heading to the airport. No rest for the weary!
