We buy a massive amount of jewelry each and every week. Since we know nothing about pearls, each time we felt them and they felt heavy, we tossed them in a drawer. This is over 3 years of accumulation. There are freshwater, saltwater, and faux pearls included. This is a very high-dollar value, for someone who knows about pearls. Please look through all the pictures carefully and bid accordingly. Auction starts at $9.95, shipping is $24.95 (very heavy lot.)
