| OK, being dumb here. I thought they were talking about Akoyas. Why would someone compare freshwaters with Australian SS? It's like apples and oranges. Totally different market. I am a freshwater fan, but I also like SS when I can afford them. And I thought poor quality freshwaters are just less lustrous/attractive. I would expect nucleated varieties of pearls to "wear out" quicker.
