<p>[QUOTE=&quot;aaroncab, post: 276898, member: 3974&quot;]Picked this up the other day at a thrift store- has a Monet tag, but no other marks. The pearls vary in size from about 6mm to 11mm for the largest. They also vary in shape but generally I&#039;d describe them as sort of like lentils or corn kernels - roundish, with flatter edges(considered &quot;baroque&quot;?). I&#039;m fairly certain they aren&#039;t fake - at least not plastic - they feel weightier than plastic would and to me they feel rough against my tooth. Against a dark background they look almost white, against a white background they are almost more of an ivory color - they do have some iridescence/glow to them.</p><p><br /></p><p>Real pearls? Also I poked around a bit and I know Monet started making costume jewelry in the late 30&#039;s - any idea when this one is from? Thanks! First pic is inside under LED lighting hanging on a black vase - others are outside/sunlight/shade.</p><p><br /></p><p>~</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]88041[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]88042[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]88043[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]88044[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]88045[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]88046[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
