    Can these pearls be fixed?

    LOL - yes, Pearl Dreams, that's what I meant. If the champagne color is partially due to powder residue or makeup, they might not look quite the same. Sorry I wasn't clear!

    Can these pearls be fixed?

    Kelly, how wonderful to wear your great-grandmother's pearls at your wedding! We'd love to see any pictures you take of your pearls, and I'm sure there are people here who could give you a lot of information. One thing to note, it's possible that these will be somewhat lighter after...
