Selling My Natural Pearls

by Brian VandenBroucke

Hello:

I have a lovely pre-war 1940s strand of graduated pearls - or so they say.

I am about to do an official certification. It was quoted, that if natural pearls, they would fetch between 50-60K ... if someone were willing to buy them that is.

I am ready to evaluate and sell... but, before I go through the trouble ... I want to do a reality chekc on the best way to sell if real.

- Art house auction
- Private placement
- Dealer

What are the options and pitfalls? I understand everyone needs to make a profit. But, what need I understand. I will submit photos with a certification if I can just have a little more direction of next steps might be.

Best
Brian
