These 8mm freshwater pearls are exactly what I hoped they would be! Beautiful luster and shape, in fact they are far superior to a pair of Akoya's I purchased first from another "Source". I returned the Akoya's because they didn't look as good as my old inexpensive freshwater studs, but I really wanted a more lustrous larger pair of pearls. I should have ordered from Pure Pearls in the first place, especially since most information came from their site, and they were highly regarded in the pearl world. But I let the name Akoya and the price influence me to try someone else first. Lesson learned!
I am so happy with my new earrings, the service, shipping and informative emails were spot on.
I will only buy from Pure Pearls from now on❤️️
