Sorry for your loss. May her memory be a blessing.

Thank you , Jeg and eolian pearls! Your pearls are extremely beautiful!...... and yes, what I thought was expensive 20 years ago, is untouchable, today!

Thank you, BWeaves.

This is my South Sea keshi strand. I purchased it about 20 years ago.

Thank you, Pearl Dreams, for that information.

Thank you, Jeg, for the beautiful photos and narrative.

Will this conversation be recorded and available to be watched at a later date for those of us who are unable to attend this Wednesday?

Definitely not South Sea. They look like Chinese freshwater.

Thank you. I just pre-ordered a copy, too.

Thank you. I appreciate your compliments.

I purchased this beautiful baroque Tahitian strand at the PP Sea Hunt / Jack Lynch live event. The 22k gold beads are hand fabricated.
