Red Abalone Pearl

This Pearl has been in my family for over 30 years and I am excited to share the beauty of it with others. I was given a gunny sack of abalone shells my father got while diving on the California coast. One shell had 3 pearls in it. This is a picture of the biggest.

Auction house appraisals
by: Kari

Hello Michael,

One option for getting a free appraisal is to go to an auction house on their appraisal days. Many auction houses, such as Bonhams & Butterfields, have these free appraisal days in many different cities.

If it's convenient, it's a nice way to get a ballpark estimate on the worth of your pearl.

Here's the link to the Bonham & Butterfield's site to get you started on your search:

Hey, that's a beautiful blister pearl. A nice unexpected treasure. Have you made it into a pendant? How are you displaying or enjoying these pearls? Thank you, Michael, for sharing.
