WAREHAM'S BEAUTY

MY FATHER WAS DIGGING FOR QUAHOGS IN THE SWIFTS BEACH AREA IN THE 1930'S AND FOUND THIS 6MM PEARL IN ONE OF THE QUAHOGS THAT HE HAD OPENED TO EAT (RAW).

I HAD ALAN GOLASH EXAMINE IT AND HE STATED THAT IT WAS A QUAHOG PEARL AND THAT IT HAD ALL THE QUALITIES THAT HIS HAD EXCEPT FOR "SIZE". I WENT TO HIS SHOP IN NEWPORT,RI.THREE WEEKS AFTER THE STORY APPEARED IN THE NEWS.
I WILL BE HAVING THE PEARL APPRAISED WITHIN THE NEXT THREE WEEKS TO SEE APPROXIMATELY WHAT IT'S VALUE MIGHT BE.

Great photo

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the great photo of your pearl and yes, it's lovely. It was a good idea to have Mr. Golash look at it. I guess we're still all wondering what his famous brooch is actually worth.

Please let us know what your appraisal turns out to be. I'm sure lots of folks would be interested. Me too.

Thanks for taking the time to share!
