<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lucille.b, post: 4475813, member: 51&quot;]Posting this for a friend, but happy to learn, too.&nbsp; This friend had jewelry she had questions about, and some of it was very high end and clearly well made with 18K, etc.&nbsp;&nbsp; I could give her some approximate ideas about most of it, but I really don&#039;t know pearls. I just wondered if anyone knew pearls, maybe could take a look and I could pass the info along.</p><p><br /></p><p>She was always told that this was a &quot;very valuable set&quot;.&nbsp; I know we&#039;ve all heard that, but you should have seen some of the other jaw dropping things she had, thought it at least merited some further research. The information she had was that they were: &quot;Matching black pearls in a sterling pear setting purchased in Korea in the 1950s&quot;.&nbsp; It sounded like the fact that they were<i> matching</i> pearls was what made them more valuable.&nbsp; Looking carefully at the earrings I see no marks, but the setting appears to be sterling.&nbsp; The earring backs (clutches) were marked 14K.</p><p><br /></p><p>I did some quick searching and came up with nothing.&nbsp; Does anyone know pearls?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]387973[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Not cleaned, but you get the idea:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]387974[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]387975[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for taking a look.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
