    Hi Antz,

    Please do give us photos and also your website when you get it up and running. Your abalone pearls are spectacular. I would love to own a couple of them. As it is I have a couple of Abalone shells and value them but having a couple of pearls - WOW !!!

    Hi antz
    I guess you made it ok? Just wishing you the best.

    BTW I have to find someone to take the little pearls to India to drill. Doubt I'll be able to do that, so I can send them back anytime you wish.

    On a recent trip back to the Chatham Is I was lucky enough to obtain some new pearls from a friends collection to add to what remains of mine,
    these will be sorted into small packages and put on ebay in the very near future

    Hi antz - i spoke to a manufacturing jeweller here in Aus just yesterday regarding abalone pearls - if you pm me your details, I would be happy to pass on to him? I think he operates in North Queensland.

    Such beautiful colors, very delicate looking pearls. How could they be used in jewelry?
