Thank you very much for your kind answers. I appreciate you taking the time to review as well as your thoughtful advices. Obviously, currently there is not enough information to identify the pearls and I definitely would not want you to waste your time in the guessing game. I understood, that I...

Thank you so much JerseyPearl!!! I appreciate greatly you adding that zoomed in view for me

Sorry, forum seem to be schrinking the photo, so I cannot see many datils, that I see on the ipad. I am afraid I do not know how to attach a higher resolution photo

I have tried to zoom a bit on the pearls. Let me know whether this would be of any help

The pricing is currently her gut price which would be way too low for a SSP but a tad too high for FW, I would say :)

Thank you very much for your kind answers the far. May I clarify the details. I am offered those pearls by a friend, who got them from her late aunt but does not like wearing them, feeling they are too big for her. This is not a stock photo, this is just the best I could do with my iphone. The...

For a while I was looking for a nice white strand of pearls in the larger size. Now I was offered this strand: slightly baroque, 11,5-12,5mm. Pearls seem to have some decent luster and the size is not typical for FWP, but with all the nuclear -bead pearls you never know. Clasp is 14k gold if...

Thanks, Pearl Dreams. I guess you are right, I cannot have it all. Then I will just go for doubling, as this is my "bossy" look when I need to pretend being important in serious meetings.

Pattye, the graduation is not too much, but as the pearls are huge, they disturb when they end up in the back of the neck. I have posted them here:https://www.pearl-guide.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7943&page=6&p=109018&highlight=#post109018. (Sorry, I am struggling with uploading the photos)

Wendy, thank you so much! This is exactly an approach that I was looking for! I can't wait to start stringing. I am only waiting for a clasp that you have shipped to Germany today to day (yep, it was me, confess) :-)

Fellow beaders, Hopefully you could give me a helping hand here. I am planning to restring my 36- inch strand. Currently it is graduated to the center, however, I always wear it double, thus the largest pearls end up behind my neck, if I do not want to show the clasp. Now, as I am adding a...

Thank you very much. I appreciate your kind words. I make sure to wear those pearls at least once a week to do them justice :)

Lema, I was just drooling at you necklaces in the etsy shop. Beautiful things, I only need to decide upon one I like most :) Would you custom make, in case I cannot decide pon one favourite? ;)

And I was wearing today... Well, actually I do not even know what I am wearing - are those freshwater or SSP? I ended buying them from the estate sale and the auctioneer did not know their origin in the first hand. I loved their baroque'ness and satiny luster. (in case anybody knows, I would...

Wow, those are sweet. Love the gorgeous ros? overtones

Woooooow, Sarah, so beautiful. There are some, I have literally fallen in love with. As for the selling channel, I would consider Ruby Lane and Etsy. Ruby lane is well known among the collector of vintage pieces, while Etsy reaches out to the broad set of customers, while at the same time a...

Sarah, I just searched your web-site for the pictures of the carvings, but there do not seem to be any out there yet. I am anxiously waitng for a sneak preview. Jade is my second-largest passion after pearls and you got me sooo curious. Anything you could share yet?

Interestingly, the Sea of Cortez and (surely) tahitian were the easiest guesses. We are a truly one funny community, if such a rarity as sea of cortez pearl becomes easily recognizable.

I would be seconding Pearl Dreams, though must admit I did not have solution to the pearl on the right. Those pearls would make a one of a kind tin cup - "The Pearl Quest" representing all major sorts

Jeremy, thank you very much for this chance to dream about. I'll keep the ticket, as a reminder of all my day-dreams ;)
