How can I tell if pearls are 'real' or imitation? Does anyone know?
How can I tell if pearls are 'real' or imitation? Does anyone know?
I found the following article particularly helpful.

What works best for me is to observe the drill holes for signs of flaking with a jeweller's loupe (well worth investing in if you're interested in jewellery).
Hope this helps.

I have two ebid stores. This is for Cats Protection;Lots of beanies, fast food toys, random collectables, some new children's clothes - almost anything really.
this is business and sells skeleton leaves, Thai silk, various vintage postcards, more random collectables
Both sell discontinued china tableware.
