agreed, perhaps a bit exaggerated - but Hong Kong show is going on right now so we'll see what our buyers report. However, I do know from the Bangkok show (just finished) that colorstones have definitely gone up in price.

Agreed, these are most likely south sea pearls - if so, they could be quite valuable. You've got a nice auntie!

Felicia, Many local jewelers can do the drilling for you, you might ask whether they do it on-site or send it out. Even better, if you let know where you're located someone on this forum may be able to make recommendations. Eric

wow is right - does anyone know what happened to the other four?

I know!! I was so shocked when I turned on the TV this morning, having mentioned her only yesterday. We will miss her as will so many, such a classy lady.

@ tammyk73 where are you located? Someone here on this forum may be able to help. Otherwise, a local jeweler can quote you (you should ask them who will do the drilling and setting.)

rare pearls being rare I suppose this one will just have to do, at least until Liz ever lets go of La Peregrina (assuming she still has it :-). Of course, that one would fetch quite a bit more than a quarter million.

nice designs this year! Yeah, believe this was started by Paspaley a little while back. I think it actually has two contest divisions, an Open group for the "pros" and a Student group for anyone who wants to participate.
