Akoya or South Sea?

So, I scored this for $25 so it doesn’t really matter what it is. But, I’m curious! They’re 11 mm and almost all of them are very round, one is slightly drop-shaped. They seem to have enough wear to have been someone’s favorite bracelet. My guess was South Sea but what do you guys think?

Hello Mary!
From the pictures you posted I really think those are imitation pearls. They are all too identical and have non natural surface.
Are you sure they are real pearls? You can find posts where it is explained how to check it.
If it is not bothering you, please include picture of the drop shaped one.

The clasp appears to be gold filled from the stamp on it.
The pearls-- my first impression was imitation. Or maybe just really poor quality, whatever they are. Sorry.

clasp is solid 14k, I have the xrf for it. It’s stamped 585. I’m not sure what stamps you’re seeing, but in person it’s stamped for solid gold and I only buy with stamps plus xrf.

It was sold out of Miami as a set of a choker and 2 matching bracelets, I wound up with only one bracelet. Gah.
