Purchased in November 2019, no the colored pearls actually came from a seperate lot which did specify they were freshwater pearls. These, even I can tell are a much higher quality than the colored ones. They are crème and pinkish mostly.
Large lot of pearls purchased years ago at an auction. They came from a pearl dealer who passed away. I’ve tried scheduling appraisals, but I have thousands, and am told it will take a lot of time and thousands to appraise them all.
