Hi everyone!
I'm hoping someone here can help me identify these pearls. Each one measures about 6.6 mm, and when I hold them up to the light, I can see darker lines running through the inside. There’s also a mark on the clasp, but it’s very small, and I’m having trouble reading it. I’ve attached the best photos I could take and I hope they’re clear enough to be useful.
I also tried the “rub together” test, and to me, they feel a bit gritty, but I honestly don’t know if I’m evaluating it correctly, as I don’t have any experience with real pearls. Additionally, one of the pearls appears to be damaged — the surface looks worn down or scratched. I’m not sure if it’s a worn-off artificial coating or something else.
Thanks so much for taking the time to look and for any help or insights you can share!
