| Hi Jeremy quote The Gemological Institute of America (GIA) announced a pearl certification standard in early April, and Mr Bracher described it as "an encouraging development" in the pearl industry. He expects the pearl knowledge of both the trade and consumers to increase as the use of the certificates becomes widespread. unquote What a good new, Can surely increase confidence in pearls offer on the market That's exactly what I said in another thread, http://www.pearl-guide.com/forum/sho...2463#post12463 I don't mean getting a pearl certificate for each pearl - too expensive - but having a undisputed standard for pearls worlwide accepted (shine, shape, size, surface, shade??) Then how would it be possible to grade that wonderful pearls you took back from your recent trip to China, so shiny, so amazing ? thanks a lot ![]() |
