It was such a surprise to log on and not find "The Other Pearls!" I'm kind of at a loss here because my abalone mabe's, even though they start out as natural blister pearls, don't qualify as natural after I've processed them into mabe's and they're certainly not cultured. So--where do I go to discuss them?

The "Other Pearls" was merged with "Natural Pearls" because there was so much overlap. Natural abalone blister pearls can still fit into the natural category.

Ahh--I see. Thank you for both the information and the generosity to allow me to continue in the Natural Pearls forum.
