Hello,
I have posted pictures of my pearl collection in another forum. I thought I would share them with you, please ignore me if you have already seen the pictures before.
The first two pictures are collages of my pearl rings and earrings. All of these are south seas or tahitian pearls except for the chandelier earrings, which are freshwater pearls. As I have not worn the chandelier earrings and don't think I will wear them, I am parting with them.

Next is my strand of south sea pearl necklace that is between 9 to approx 11.5mm and my two strands of baroque pearls. The round strand has a diamond flower clasp. The white baroque strand is between 9-12mm and the golden baroque strand is between 10-13+mm

I didn't realise that the pictures will be shown as an attachment.
Anyway, here are my Tahitian baroque strands as well as my freshwater strands. The first strand on the left has aubergine overtones, the middle strand has peacock overtones and the third has purple overtones. It is so hard to capture the actual colour and overtones on the camera!
As for my freshwater strands, the first strand on the right is a gem quality 9.5mm strand. The second strand is a 7.5-8.0mm AAA quality double strand necklace. The third is a 8.5mm gem quality single that is 26" long strand. The last is a gray AAA quality 9.5-10mm strand.

This is the last picture, it is a strand of AA+/AAA quality 8.4-11.2mm silvery blue round tahitian necklace. I can only find one blemish in the entire strand. The lustre is a very high, metallic lustre and I think the pictures captured the metallic lustre quite well.

Thank you so much, Socaligurl!
May I know how you made those pictures appear on the screen rather than just attachments? I am new to BTD, so I am not very familiar with the forum tools. Thank you.
