Trusted Vendors Sticky?

I’ve bought FWP fireball earrings and metallic keshi earrings from OceanRhyme on Etsy, and both were excellent, with photos close to how they looked like IRL.

Her shop has a nice range of different pearls at different price ranges, and good deals can be found in her sale section. Shop is based in the US.

I’ve also bought Akoyas from the vendor Pearlyuumi on Rakuten (Japan’s Amazon) and they’re beautiful. The international English site for Rakuten has since closed but I just realized this vendor has opened on Etsy. Shop is based in Japan, but offers free international shipping to many places.

The shop carries mostly akoyas with a limited selection of WSS, GSS and Tahitians.

I've been visiting around a website. www.cmwpearls.com

I saw like they have some amazing pearls options and some were graded with High luster? but quality was AAA/AA, I was wondering how it worked or anyone had bought High Luster pearl from them?

Hopefully can share their picture with item that are written high luster, is it really better?

I'm not sure how their grading works but often AAA/AA can mean that either one is a bit flawed or has a different lustre or. that both have great lustre but possibly a few minor flaws. Did you ask them ?

I've bought an AAA/AA strand from them however it wasn't high luster so can't comment on that.

Their guide only talks about the blemishes and how their grading works.

Yes they shared me a whole table of their grades, it was actually in the product description, they have a link when click on grade tutorials something like this
