Akoya studs surprise!

[stracci2000]

I was poking around in a consignment shop today and looking through a basket of costume jewelry. Not all of it was costume!
These akoyas rose to the top and said "Rescue me!"
They are 8mm with 14k posts.
A great buy at $5.00!
I was so excited, I took photos in the car.

What a lucky find! One day you are going to find a big diamond ring- I just know it.

I am looking in earnest!
In the meantime, I find all kinds of other interesting things!

What an amazing find! I can’t believe they cost about the same price as a cup of coffee!
They look lovely on you too @stracci2000

I'll take half and you take half. We must share the responsibility!

They looked too good to be true!
I didn't want to get too exited in front of the sales person, so I just bit my lip till I got out to the car.
They are really smooth and nice, and comparing to some of my other pearls I'm guessing maybe AA grade?
My photos don't do them justice.

Whatever the pearls may be, the 14K posts alone are worth more than 5.00 USD!
