    Natural pearl thursday island

    Thank you Douglas. I’ve told my pearl story to family and friends and educated them about pearls. No-one so far knew the difference between a wild caught natural pearl or a cultured pearl. Cultured pearls are just as beautiful but not rare. I didn’t know the difference either until I acquired...

    Thank you Cathy! That’s a terrific design because I was sad I had to have a hole drilled in my pearl. I will start looking for these.
  8. Thanks Douglas. I am indeed referring to Thursday Island in Australia. I’ve looked up William Saville-Kent. He’s terribly interesting. My now retired brother was a Marine Scientist on the Great Barrier Reef and his field of research was coral. I bet he’s read his books. These photos are clumsy...

    Natural pearl thursday island

    Hi, I have been left a natural pearl given to my father in the 1970’s when he was in Thursday Island, on a school conference. He said the Chief of the Island gave it to him. It’s not cultured.
