My first pearl purchase since joining PS and I still didn't bother researching
I've bought pearls on/off but admittedly have only considered lustre, tone and style.
The Tahitian pearl strand (10-12mm) will be 20" with a 14k wg clasp. Admittedly this is my most expensive pearl piece by far and it's freaking me out a bit. I am wondering if like CS, I should've researched more and looked online. I know the color isn't consistent but it was the combination that caught my eye.
The Chinese blush colored fresh water strand (12-15mm) will be 34" with a gold plated clasp.
I paid $1800 for both to be made. Checking around, I don't think I got ripped off (if I did I could probably back out) but would like to learn what to look for/ask future purchases.
