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 😅
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...
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...
