I agree!

Very nice necklace! But I do not know how to call it either.

I agree

Well, the newer photos do help see them better and they look like MOP beads made using silver-lipped shell. I purchased a necklace like that one back in 1994. I paid some $30 dollars for it. Got it directly from Lu Pearl...so price was wholesale. Hope this helps!

These kind of look like mother of pearl beads to me.

Yummy & Beautiful! Now I feel like having peals for breakfast!

Gorgeous!

Perhaps it will be easier if words are associated with percentages? Slightly - Less than 5% Lowly - From 5 to 10% Moderately - 11 to 25% Not really suggesting these should be the numbers...just an idea.

You could also use a long-wave UV lamp. Place the pearls inside a black bag, alongside one true pearl...the real pearl will GLOW (actually, it will fluoresce) BLUE if it is a white pearl. The faux pearls will simply look "dead" (no soul).

Not to my knowledge! But I know that he has been extremely busy! And Black Friday-Cyber Monday have been very successful...so, makes sense not to see the info here. I actually purchased some earrings from the Pearl Paradise site this weekend.

Back in the 1990's Akoya pearl production began to grow in China. I saw many lots and they were pretty, but not as lustrous as the Japanese Akoya. There is still an actual saltwater Akoya production in China, but these new freshwater pearls are the ones we have to watch out for: they have a...

I finally gave my beloved her birthday gift: a GORGEOUS Golden Akoya pearl necklace. She LOVED it! She wore it daily! It just seems to "float" on her neck, and due to her skin tone it just GLOWS. It had been a while since I have purchased any Akoya pearls, but I think I can become a true fan by...
