Your attention to detail and organization of facts is amazing. I'm sure that when people discover your Channel, they will learn to appreciate your knowledge and insight as well as all the work you put into your presentations. I can see your Channel Growing into a very noteworthy and popular Channel here on KZbin. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your videos.

Hey there McArthur Seek and Speak Truth thank you so, so much for watching my video and taking the time to leave such a genuine, thoughtful comment. Your kindness really warms my heart! I do love sharing useful knowledge for the community and i'm grateful you can see the effort i have invested. Unfortunately i don't have professional audio/visual which can be frustrating for some viewers so i'm lucky to meet patient people like you :) Wishing you a wonderful week!

[@cmk7585]

Hey there maria thanks so much for watching and leaving such a kind comment! If you take your pearls out of the box try to keep them inside a breathable material so they don't collect dust :) I believe jewelry boxes shouldn't be a problem as they're not sealed air-tight. Hope your pearls look beautiful for a long time :)

[@Liz86000]

I never bought my pearls from big name brands like Mikimoto and Tiffany. I find the prices inflated and I could find similar quality ones at lesser prices from lesser-known but reputable sellers

[@hedindunuffin]

So so informative. I'm male 118 pounds 5'9 I was thinking maybe a 6mm would look good on me. Here's to hoping with all your advice I'll look as fly as the guy I saw rocking them. 😎

[@maximhollandnederlandthene7640]

Hi, Mikimoto is from the end of the 19th century, not of the 18th century. 🤗 In 1888 he started fundraising his business to grow pearls and in 1893 he succeeded to grow them artificial himself. 🤗

I had no idea that you have made this video as I was always looking for videos concerning handbags and shoes up till now. I am soooo glad I found this video! You helped me so much like always!

Hey Georgia thanks so much for watching and taking the time to share your thoughts with me, your personality really comes across in your messages :) Haha it's dangerous to say your handbag collection is 'complete' - but since you have fantastic taste, i'm sure you have enough beauties to last a lifetime. Glad to hear you're enjoying the world of pearls! Just i hope you have more opportunities to wear them out unlike your gorgeous bags - don't let your pearls be hidden away! Later this month i'm reviewing my Gucci Loafers so hopefully that interests you :) Have a great week and catch you back on IG!

Thank you so much my dear CMK for reading and answering to our comments and for all your kind words!! ♥️ I have followed your advice and my beautiful bags get the love they need and they see the shiny sun of Greece!! Lol..Ok almost all of them. The Chanel lambskin flap bag still remains in that luxury bag display as I am still scared to scratch her!! I intend to use my pearls a lot once they reach me! Don’t worry!! Life is too short to wait for that perfect occasion to use your favorite items!! I look forward to your next videos as usual!! I, also, own a couple of Gucci loafers (the black one with the rose on it and the blue Gucci bloom one) and absolutely love them!! Take care!! 😍😍😍😘😘😘

I had know idea my gift was so expensive. I did notice some writing on the clasp one day so when i took a closer look it read 14k And then a symbol and 2 letters. I loved them before seeing your video ,but i love them even more. Thank you for the information.

[@milagrosrojas1538]

Do you recommend Tiffany pearls?

[@cmk7585]

Hi Milagros Rojas thank you for stopping by! I only own 1 pearl ring by Tiffany's but the pearls are freshwater (lowest grade) since it was primarily a costume jewelry piece. In general i haven't been that impressed with the quality of Tiffany's sterling silver - it seems to have degraded over the years, especially for stock purchased outside USA. Yet Tiffany's pricing remains premium. To me personally, it feels like the strength of their brand is primarily in their marketing/name, followed by their classic/iconic designs - quality is lower down the rung. If you're after costume jewelry, I'm sure Tiffany's freshwater pearls & their designs will do the job. If you're after premium pearls, perhaps it's best to look elsewhere?

Thank you...I think I will need it, May I ask where you bought your pearl necklaces? :)

[@cmk7585]

Sorry a few necklaces' origin is unknown - i received the single strand as a gift and the triple strand preloved through ebay. The freshwater necklace i actually bought from Costco's jewelry section! I only saw it once and then not again for a while so i think they change the display quite a lot. Keep your options open! The right style will pop up eventually

Hi Debbie thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts! Not a bad idea, although perhaps a small mark on the pearl's surface would damage it? But otherwise yes i agree, pearl grading needs to be easier to understand! Later this month i'll be uploading my tips for how i scored the Hermes Kelly in Paris if that interests you. Hope you have a great week!
