Anyone looking for project pearls?
These are 8.5-9.0mm - from a Hanadama necklace that I had shortened. All pearls are full-drilled and in brand new condition (I chose the strand in-person on vacation and requested that it be shortened and then mailed out to me).
The pearls are from the necklace in this PSL certificate below (nacre 0.55mm). The paper copy of the certificate is not included with purchase of these singletons.
How I'm pricing these:
Necklaces always boast lowest price per pearl. A quick search of my usual pearl boutiques shows price per pearl for Hanadama necklaces at anywhere from $56 to $95 (amongst the vendors that I know of, The Pearl Source happens to have the lowest price at the moment, which is $56/pearl: https://www.thepearlsource.com/8.5-9.0mm-hanadama-akoya-white-pearl-necklace.html). Because hanks come in predefined lengths, buying just a few of these pearls retail is exorbitantly pricey (most vendors will refuse) - a vendor who splits a strand now has a non-standard length to find some use for.
I've got (7) pearls. I'm looking for $25/pearl, with an additional flat $8 for shipping (regardless of number of pearls purchased). Happy to split 'em, pair 'em, etc., but I'll give priority to anyone who wants all seven.
