Hi all:

I have a client who wants to purchase a teardrop shaped abalone
pearl. Does anyone know of a supplier, I am at a loss for finding
one. Thank you in advance for your time spent.

Linda, Try King’s Ransom, 415-331-2650. I know she carries abalone
pearls, not sure what shapes she has, but beautiful stuff. You can
also email Betty Sue at kransom@pacebell.net.

Linda, Try Craig Boisvert in San Louis Abispo at 800 549-1007 or 805
546-8421. There is another supplier in Fresno, CA who is a member of
Orchid, maybe he will respond to you as well. Barbara Bequette

Dear Linda,

There is a Australian who has set up a abalone ;'blister pearl farm
here in a southern island. I say that one of his styles is a tear
drop shape probably used for earrings. If you want I can give you
his mobile phone number is this is not too far out of place. They
were probably about 25-30 $ each if I remember but the quality is
very good.

Try emailing SeaGem74@aol.com for abalone pearls. I bought some
abalone pearls from them a while back. I’m not sure they are at the
same address,but they may be. Annette
