Not sure what kind they are, so all opinions welcome. They have a MOP back on the pearl, which doesn't really photograph well...they are set in 18k gold which is also a unique color...not as yellow as yellow gold but not as rose as rose gold...kind of a soft pinky gold. They were from the estate section, so I also have no idea how old they are. The gold is very heavy as are the pearls.
