It's not always possible to tell if goldens have been dyed. Even gem labs can't always be sure. That's why Carolyn had them do a destructive test -- it's the only way to be positive that the fabulous color is real.

tells in the description that they cut and tested a pearl to be sure the color was natural.
I honestly didn't read it, so if they are natural in color then they are very nice.
