But you do have to be careful with just using "A" grade when referring to the pearls. The one I described is considered very fine. Paspaley is the only company I know of that can consistently produce them of this quality. I have never seen a full lot from another company, although I have seen good, clean 17mm pieces. It is all in the grade of the pearl when discussing those large pieces.
