What kinds of pearls are these and what species do they come from? Can NOT get my mind off these earrings and I just have to know more about the pearls!
 
Hello madsciencechik,
Where did you get the photo from ? looks like an auction catalogue, is it ? it is better to fully quote. Any description attached to the photo?
I would say natural salt water pearl, can be from Mexico Gulf ... or pacific ...
 
I have a freshwater pearl that looks like the one on the left. But the one on the right looks more like a pteria penguin mabe pearl.

It's hard to see with a 2-D image, are these pearls mabe?
 
The color code puts them in the $50,000 to $100,000 range and the description says "natural pearl, diamond and platinum drop earrings."

So, they are being advertised as naturals.
 
DId you ask the seller ? the question to ask is :
" is there any gemological certificate stating the type of pearl"
good luck
