Grade that pearl!

[silverseajewelry]

I thought it might be fun to post some tahitian pearl photos and discuss grading. I am very interested in the subject but I have lots to learn, too.

I'll take some photos and post later, but if someone else wants to start...feel free.

Moved over from "women in power thread" where grading is being discussed and most recently, a question about the nucleus showing through. Here is a doozy! I set it in silver for myself as the other side is fairly clean. Closeness of photo compromises color somewhat, but it is medium grey with a hint of pistachio overtone.
