I have two small Pearl necklaces,one with an18 ct turquoise set clasp,the other with a 14 ct white gold clasp,both are about 14” long.Iv candled the larger pearls which all show up differently so I’m guessing not cultured.Neither strand is knotted but between each Pearl is a smaller Pearl,or...

Have just got round to cleaning the brass on my necklace,and discovered it’s gold.....

A question for Douglas,I’m a bit puzzled,in an earlier comment you said this gorgeous Pearl could be natural or freshwater.Aren’t early river pearls Naturals too? Are they less rare or valuable than natural saltwater pearls?

If you have still got them can we see a photo?Iv no idea what unio pearls are and need to be educated.

The strand is 54” or 138 cms long,and is strung on very fine thread,not horsehair,but I suppose it they could have been restrung.They are about 4 mm wide and 2mm long.rI love the romance,that they would have been worn by a Berber bride for her wedding,then parted with when money was tight,but...

Now there’s an idea! Many years ago,I talked my way into Harry Winstons in NewYork,just because of being terribly English and carrying a Harvey Nichols carrier bag,The first thing the vendeuse( could never call her a sales assistant!) asked me was whether I knew Princess Diana..Not wanting to...

I’m presuming the grey nuggety pearls are rough freshwater.The iridescence is amazing,a bit like the edge of a rainbow where the layers have worn away.The blue pearls hiding in the old rockers are earrings made like bunches of grapes,I couldn’t get them to stand up on their own! The blues are...

If pearls were like people..The 2 strand grey ones would be aging rockers,grey ponytails,Harley Davidson’s,cruising down MainsStreet,been there,done that,got the tee shirt.The advert for these said they were baroque akoyas...honestly! The blue strand are definitely afternoon tea at the...
