Mr. Bazar, these are wonderful treasures and it makes me wish I were a trade member just to attend the show. A question: is the weight of Miracle of the Sea 300 or 127.5ct? Your post matches the text on your website, which makes me wonder where I've become confused.

25.5g equals 127.5 KT the quote has been around a long time I am not sure where the 300 kt comes from?

That was confusing. Is there another pearl that is exactly 300 carat? Also, do you mean 127.5 ct instead of KT?

the Exhibition it is quite extraordinary

the Exhibition it is quite extraordinary

I think you should just see the Exhibition it is quite extraordinary for anyone the loves pearls. As to the exact weight of the pearl it is 25.5 grams. I think it is even more interesting that it belonged to the most powerful woman on earth. The Dowager Empress of Tzu - Hsi . Tzu-Hsi ruled China from 1875 to 1908.

Is Imperial and Imperial-Delta the same thing?

 

[GemGeek]

In my long-ago research of Eyris Blue Pearls, I found that Imperial-Deltah and Imperial are one in the same. Of course, I could be wrong, but there is only one www.pearls.com
