This June we gave away 25 strands of Freshwater Pearls and Coral to Three Winners

Over the past six years, we have collected quite an assortment of Freshwater Pearls and Coral that for one reason or another we feel that we cannot sell. Most of the pearls are over dyed, poorly drilled or just spotty. The coral is mostly that fake red reconstituted stuff or so faded that they are barely pink. You might find an odd strand that you like; these would also make great fillers.

Okay now that I have presented these pearls in their best light. We have rounded up all of our stray strands and decided to give them away.

The Pearls are mostly between 4 and 6mm in size. The shapes include Buttons, Rice and Potato. The colors range from off white to neon orange. The coral includes Branch, Barrel and Triangles. All of the Freshwater Pearls come from China, and are cultured.


During the month of June, we will have three drawings; each winner will receive approximately 25 Strands or Mixed Pearls and Coral. We have 50 strands of Pearls and 25 Strands of Coral total.

The dates of the drawings will be June 11th, June 18th and June 25th. Each winner will be notified via email.


The Selection - Everything Looks good in Mass, the proof is in the details.
The winners for the Drawings are.

We have our three winners

W. B. of Posrtmouth, VA Says
The wife and I are just starting beading. My wife loves to put beads and sequins on all of here embroidered shirts and dresses. We have been giving it a great deal of thought on opening our own shop. I turn out a mean set of things. Necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. I hope we can do a lot of business real soon.
