My brother found this rare gem after clamming in Narraganset Bay, RI. It’s 20 mm, brown, and beautiful. I had it set into a gold ring. Nice catch for the day.

found pearl in RI
by: Anonymous

My name is Karl and i was at a cocktail party at my country club in Rhode Island and having been at the raw bar i ate a little neck clam and found a beautiful pearl inside, slightly irregular but opaque in color. What kind of value should i expect and who would look at it?

Hi Tracy,

Wow, 20mm is big! Glad you could have something special made from it.

Yes, indeed, good catch for the day!

Thanks for sharing.
