<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bronwen, post: 438773, member: 5833&quot;]The pearls in the main part of the necklace look like they are <i>cerclé</i>, or circle pearls as they have come to be known.&nbsp; Any pearl that is not spherical is considered baroque.&nbsp; I would call these barrel shaped, but see them offered also as potato pearls.&nbsp; The large pendant pearl is of a type that appeared on the market sometime 15 - 20 years ago.&nbsp; Maybe [USER=1496]@Hollyblue[/USER] remembers more.&nbsp; The one that links the pendant to the rest of the necklace does look smooth &amp; spherical, so wonder whether that one is also a cultured pearl or an impostor.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
