Thank you!! Really appreciate your input. 🥰

Hi again, I have this ring, it’s a big 29 pearl cocktail ring and it’s got a K14 mark. I know that’s how Japanese gold is marked but this looks like it’s got some kind of makers mark in front of the K14, I just can’t get a great shot of it due to the size of the ring. Also there is glue showing...

Hey there, Have this strand of 5.5-6mm pearls. They are round, uniform in shape, have a few divots. No rings. I don’t see much in the way of potato shape which makes me think maybe dyed akoya but the colors aren’t super uniform. Could these be super low grade Tahitian? Or what do you guys...

Howdy all, Long time no post! I have been a little busy because I had twins in July but I have been keeping up with my pearl habit, much to my husband's chagrin (don't you already have those pearls??? lol. How many times have I heard that. Also it's really easy to browse ebay while you're...

MSC, would it be tacky of me to ask what you dropped on the necklace you picked up? That clasp is bangin. Also thank you for the great idea on how to re-purpose graduated strands...I come across SO many of those and I'm sick of selling them on fleabay for pennies.

The Rose Freshadama is definitely my pick! There is just no comparison. Amazing how far freshwater pearls have come in just a few decades!!

Hello all, I wanted to see what you guys thought about this black pearl strand. It has some weird divots and the pearls are all very round which makes me think dyed akoya or small tahitians but I don't know if tahitians come this small. If they are FWCP they are really round and no growth...

Hey ladies and gents, Long time no post! Still lurk from time to time though. :) Well I have been on another vintage pearl buying spree and I was hoping you guys could help me ID these pearl types. If you go left to right 1-6 I had posted 1 last year and was told they were tahitian and...

For whatever reason when you open a case the item disappears from your purchase history. I just had this happen to me when I had to open a case on someone. IDK why it happens though!

Hi again! I have come across a couple of these items that are signed "K. Mikimoto Tokyo" notably http://www.shopgoodwill.com/viewItem.asp?ItemID=27432026 and...

Hello again! I have a quick question about this vintage necklace and what it might be. I thought it was glass beads but they are pretty heavy, not exactly uniform and they have that same grittiness that pearls have. Clasp is marked "Japan" nothing else. What do you guys think? Also, there...

Oh my gosh I forgot to add the link! Whoops! http://www.ebay.com/itm/252172139882 Looks like someone bought it in the last couple hours. AUGH

Fascinating. Thank you!

What do you guys think of these? I don't think those pearls look like mikis but I'm on mobile and I'm Obv not an expert. :) Also does anyone know what that CPO stamp means? Thanks as always. :)

It IS the one with the post insert! I think it is so cool, I can't believe you knew that just looking at it! That's a good call with the vintages. I have found a bit of info on this coral but I will keep learning. It's a pretty broad topic! Thanks for your input as well!

Thank you for your replies, do any of you know about angel skin coral? Also I love that name Rice Krispies!!!! That is so cute!!

Hey all I have so many things I have to ask you guys about but I will start with these: There are four necklaces. The white one I am 99 percent sure is fwp and has a 10k ring clasp. The big black one I bought separate from the other three, which were purchased in the same lot, and those...

Thanks!! :) I look forward to posting more! :D

You guys are so amazing. I am so glad I found this forum!!

You guys are totally right btw, now that I'm moving it around a little bit there def are flashes of blue in there. The beads are so tiny I thought they were just glass seed beads!!! Man you guys are good! What do you think of this one: Garnet? I really love the clasp on it. :) Sorry if...
