Yes, it was! Especially since I could probably have got a pair of flawless pearls for 70 % of that, if I had bought them online!![]()

diamonds dont need to be expensive i think two 0,05 carat stones above a pearl is fine and if you take those in the quality you have shown in the beginning of the treat you be pay around 380 for a model like that with pearls like this
still the most important thing whatever you pay for something is that you where them![]()
most wholesale company s in europe have no idea about quality so you cant expect for the jewellers to have this knowledge then, i did 3 jewellery school in 3 country s and i had one day about pearls in those 6 yearsonly after i found some natural pearls and started to read about pearls and travel i found out how they work and how to look

200 euro is a little high priced for freshiesthe good thing now is that you have them you also now how to look at pearls when you buy something next time

im lucky that i found out about pearl quite early (i am 24) so in the rest of my live in jewellery i am sure i will be able to do more amazing pearl deals than other dutch jewellers that don't have much knowledge
One of the things on my Bucket List to attend a PG Ruckus, as I would love to meet the experts and learn from them!
Need to save up for some goodies while I am at PP though.

Treat every life situation like a dog: if you can't play with it, eat it, or hump it, p1$$ on it and walk away
I love the concept, but there really needs to be a ever so slight transition. Even a very tiny rim or edge, 1-mm or less around the wire at the pearls would fix the flaw and just look a tiny bit more finished.
Ok, but at this point, I'm thinking she's a pearl lover, not an artisan or jeweler (yet!). For that amount of money, why should she have to accommodate the pearls?
They ARE lovely, but she could find other lovelies, undamaged.
I vote "Return Them". Then, start again. Good luck, and buy something you'll love, not resent. I hope you keep us posted!
