[Help] Small Akoya Pearl Pricing

[gmanabe]

Hi, please kindly help me on pricing loose small akoya pearls.
It's 4-5mm and I think the grading is B.

My late Dad used to run a south sea pearl farm
in Buton island, in South-East Celebes, Indonesia.
This was his side project, he was planning to make some prayer beads sets,
but he passed away, and now I have no use for this pearls.

I'm planning to sell it, but I have no idea about their ideal price.
Please kindly help for the pricing.
Thank you so much

This sounds interesting. How many pearls had he accumulated?

Thank you Pattye
This is some of it




Thank you both for replying

You're very welcome.
Were you planning to sell them in one lot, or several small lots?

They look undrilled. And very pretty.

I may assume that the pearl farm near Celebes (Sulawesi) was a South Sea pearl farm, how come we talk here about Akoyas?

Hi Lisa, I would love to sell them in one lot.
But if someone wants them in small lots, why not? As long as it's a good deal

Hi Karin, yes they are undrilled, thank you

Hi Cees, you are right, it was a South Sea pearl farm at Sulawesi,
in the south-eastern part of Sulawesi to be exact, down the Buton strait.
How I miss that "used-to-be" boring place, my exile
I don't know from where did my Dad got these Akoyas.
But I think maybe from a friend or maybe from the Hong Kong Intl Jewelry Show?
He used to take part in it every year, with his friends and his colleagues.

Sorry it took me a while to reply, I've been busy at work.
I will post more photos in "What Kind of Pearls do I have?"
Since this is for Akoya only. Please kindly give me more advice over there, thank you
Anyway, do you guys have any idea on good marketplace websites to sell loose pearls?
Your insight means alot to me Thank you
