So we are agreed that dyed FW pearls can be quite nice? Even better than less lustrous Tahitians in some cases?

Thanks, I remember someone telling the forum a few weeks back that dyed FW luster can never compare to natural Tahitian colors. But it is clear that some fw do have better luster than some Tahitians as well as the generally accepted vice versa.

It is one of the great things about this forum is that it is actually educating people and I am delighted that fine freshwater pearls are emerging as contenders in several categories.
