I'm hoping to get some clarity on the type of pearls these are.
I was given these the day after I got married by my mother in law.
The story is that my husband's great grandfather was a doctor and he treated a very sick child from a travelling family. They didn't have any money to pay him so they paid him with Speyside pearls. This would have been around 1900. The family no longer lives in Scotland but did at the time of being given these pearls.
Until today, I did not realise how rare Scottish river pearls are and wondered if anyone here could confirm that's what they are.
