    Thrifted pearl studs

    When you look at the side of the earrings...you can see a button pearl shape. Akoyas are round. Buttons are freshwater. Still FW buttons are one of my favorites! They make pearl earrings super affordable & lots of colors.

    Very interesting! I wonder about the tanks though, is that specific tech for location or special mollusks? I'll have to read more later.

    Aliexpress pearls

    My experience on Etsy...There was a seller with "representational" photos and good feedback......the pearls were horrible to me! It could be because I hate surprises and want to see what I am getting...but I did not like them at all. I gave them away...they were so bad! There also was a...

    Keshi pearls damage? Help!

    If they really bother you so that you won't wear them...get a beading kit from Pattye & restring them...either remove the ones you don't like or move them to the back if it would be too short.

    What type of pearls are these and where can I sell them?

    What type of pearls are these and where can I sell them?

    The only problem selling them on eBay is that you need to have sold before on eBay and have gotten feedback & most Mikimotos have to go thru authentication. The strand can fail, if the x-ray machine can't read the metal or it isn't 925 sterling, if you said it was. (That happened to someone on...

    Can you help me identify this? Thanks 🙏

    These are perfect to ask my question BWeaves!!! The color varies so much...they look grey, they look green, they look blue....is that a feature of blue akoyas? I have some I can decide if I love or hate...because of this.

    Please identify both!

    Pearls are very popular right now. I noticed when I was in a jewelry store...they have all pearl necklaces with gold priced the same! They probably have a base price that they go with. So jewelers don't even know that different pearls are more valuable. $200 used is average around here...but...

    can we tell if these are real Keshi Pearl?

    @alexay123 I love eBay and I do get pearls there...but I hate the Chinese sellers of New pearls on eBay...they are so horribly mislabeled or you will get horrible pearls that look nothing like the photo!!! Take the Pearls as One course then go looking at pearls. If you need just a few new...

    A newbie's pearl journey

    I love, love those Blue Keshi!!!! Those are super special! Yes..one strand is Not enough!!! So many to enjoy! I am guessing that natural colors would usually be more expensive, but it would also depend on Saltwater vs Freshwater. Freshwater tend to be color treated a lot. I think color...
