Thank you!!!Very cool find. The pearls still have fine luster!
I will have to bring it with me the next time in NYC for a quote. I have not decide if I wanted to keep or pass it on.Triple strands are hard to restring and have them nest well. I'd send them to Mikimoto. They'd clean up the clasp too. It's hard to clean silver when pearls are involved.
Thank you so much. Yes, I love collecting Mikimoto pieces. The pearls are a bit smaller than I’m used to. I have not decide to keep it or pass it on.Beautiful!!! One thing I learned is that when restringing Mikimoto Pearls, if yoiu want them to maintain their true value, you need to send them to Mikimoto for restringing. And unfortunately that is expensive. However, you can have them restrung by a jeweler or by yourself, but you run the risk of decreasing their value. Nice that you have all the paperwork. That truly adds to the value of this lovely strand. They do look like they need restringing...you wouldn't want to risk the strand breaking when it is worn. Was this an estate find?
