Good morning PSers! These "encircled collection" Tahitian pearl earrings come with a PP appraisal indicating they are "13 mm, Peacock/Green, with highest luster, AAA, 95% blemish free." The earhooks are white gold. I've had them since 2014 when I bought them on a PP buying spree, and I clearly have not worn them or even really inspected them since then (really embarrassed about this), because I just noticed the small divot on the bottom of one of the pearls. I bought them for $450. You cannot see the divot when the earrings are on the ear, but my pricing reflects its presence. Selling to PSers only for $235.

I forgot to mention--because of the divot, I am more than happy to entertain offers.
 
Good morning! I am reducing these to $185.

Y’know, these ARE circled Tahitian pearls, a non-spherical shape is totally to be expected. I think it would be unreasonable to term the divot a “blemish” - that’s like calling the rings a blemish, IMO, y’know? That’s just one more characteristic that a circled pearl might have, one more way a circled pearl might look!

So honestly I don’t think you have any reason to reduce price based on the presence of that divot. If someone is expecting a round surface they shouldn’t be looking at circled pearls to begin with! The divot doesn’t detract from them in any way - I think they’re aesthetically matched in colour and visual weight and make a lovely pair!
 
I had no idea--I really appreciate your sharing some of your extensive expertise about pearls, @yssie
 
They are stunning. I am hoping someone buys them so I won’t feel forced to come payday.
 
If these were GSS or WSS, I'd already have them in my little Precious Pile. I have dark hair and these wouldn't be seen on me. Sigh!
 
It's shoulder length, quite curly, brunette, and dark earrings are invisible in it. LOL!
 
Bumping these beauties!
