Some of my most beautiful colour for you to enjoy 😊

The most fun part for me at the moment is finding beautiful Edison in all corners of the internet. It's like a treasure hunt. I do try my best to avoid those "shell pearls" and colour added ones. I read that purple fading article a few months ago. Makes me a bit disappointed that such beauty is...

I'm going through an obsession phase with purple Edison at the moment and come across this colour. Normally I can kinda tell if they are natural or not but this blueish purple really struck me. What does everyone else think. Is this colour treated or natural Edison colour?

The finished product for you to enjoy :) a little less brilliant compared to product picture. The smaller strand is a different purchase :)

I bought some imitation pearls just for fun. I don't really notice any difference from real SSP pearl. Guess I still have a lot to learn about pearls 😅

I like the outer most strand the most but it was already sold.

Thank you so much Pattye! There are 3 strands in the picture. I got the inner most with the 2 pistachios. I'm told they are 10 to 13mm flawless, but we shall see if they are indeed flawless. I'm having it made into a necklace. Not sure if I dare wear it outside but the colors are just too...

Thank you so much Jeremy for giving me peace of mind. It's amazing that you just can tell from pictures!

I just bought this strand on Instagram. Could someone tell me if these are real Edison pearls? Not plastics?

My main concern is that they market fresh water pearl as south sea and Tahitian. Price and designs are very attractive but I don't think I can live with this doubt.

I'm so tempted to buy pearls from the following stores. They have good presents on Instagram. However, with the relative cheap price tags, I'm thinking they are not genuine about their products. Maybe they bought cheaper fresh water pearls and market it as south sea and Tahitian? What do you...
