My daughter graduated from college in December. She fell in love with a multi colored strand of tin cup pearls while we were vacationing in Hawaii last year. I wanted to do some research and purchase a good necklace but don't want to break the bank. I ordered a necklace from the Pearl Source but it only had 7 pearls on it and she wanted one with 9. I found one on American Pearl but after reading here, I think I would regret that decision. The one she saw was from Na Hoku and I have also read scary things from them. These pearls were Akoya pearls I believe. I do not want a multicolored one but all white pearls. I am looking for recommendations in a good place to look that isn't $2000.
