Wondering about type of pearl. Probably freshwater ..? It doesn’t look this pink in person .. warm white with pink overtones . Glows light blue under UV light . Wondering why it appears to have nacre attached to gold ..

When you enlarge the top photo the “ glue “ .. ( that’s against the gold ) looks like part of the pearl ..the top edge. Perhaps the pearl shifted or was bumped and the nacre fractured at that point. It’s hard to see with out enlarging it. Thanks for looking .

Yes.. maybe I’m mistaking the glue for part of the pearl. The “ glue” seems to match the color of the pearl.

Yes, sorry for being vague. I meant to say I thought it looked like glue, not nacre.
