    Hi guys!

    I hope everyone is doing well. The necklace tests for some silver, I swore it was marked 925 somewhere but... The pearls are real, probably the freshwater cultured variety and the little rondelles have inclusions and refract the colors shown. What could they be? I was thinking of rock crystal for some reason but now I am not sure. Any help is very much appreciated

    TYIA

    Gauntlett are you sure the pearls are real? The irregular surface and what looks like wear make me think costume. I could be wrong, so let's wait for the others.

    Perhaps they are moonstone, considering the iridescence. Just a guess.

    The pearls look like freshwater to me. The pearls nearest to the bottom in your photo of the whole necklace seem to have rings on them.

    For sure they are real. I know they are cheap. I was wondering about the faceted stones. So cool. Moonstone makes sense. I’ve just never seen it outside of a cabochon
