[QUOTE="kyratango, post: 312774, member: 5006"]Does look like gold! The pearl looks like a simulant, a glass shell filled with nacreous substance. A crack of the glass can be seen in your enlarged last pic.:cyclops: To be sure, gently rub the pearl against your front tooth edge,:bucktooth: a genuine pearl feels gritty! I regularly wash my cultured pearls in lukewarm soapy water and thoroughly rinse them under clear water before wiping with a tissue! Nothing bad happened in decades :)[/QUOTE]
