For the very first time ever, I purchased a bargain pack of fresh water pearls.
Most of them are as I expected, small and odd shaped, but lovely. Unfortunately the large pearls (purple in colour) are badly pitted like they have been bashed off a hard surface. Now I dont know if that is normal for large fresh water pearls or not. If I were to make pieces of jewellery with it mixing either semi precious gemstone or swarovski crystals do you think it could still be a sellable product?
Also what is the best way to clean these pearls up with out causing further damage to them?
