[SpecialOFFER]

David and I were having a discussion and I believe that just about everyone knows how long oysters and clams and all that are irritated to make a decent pearl. I personally found out when I was about 6-ish and David only found out tonight off me.. lol so I am going to make a little poll to find out what people think..



By the way, this is around the MINIMUM amount of time it can take..

I believe it depends on the type of pearl, anything from between a year and 6 or 7 years. Not a real big fan of pearls myself.

[incimisiche]

The only good thing about pearls is they stay crunchy in milk

[affozyBoomi]

Then again, pearl neclaces are pretty cool and dont take nearly as long to produce.

[Rithlilky]

ummm its always really long or really short especially with these type of questions.... sooooo going with 30 years :P

[occurrini]

I'd say because of their price it would have to be either 3 or 30 I voted for 30, but i think that may have been too high!

[Impariclainna]

lol I'll wait another day before I give the answer...

[Grennios]

I hate pearls.
While cool scientifically speaking, fashionably they're for old ladies who smell like rose scented Renuzit.

The answer is up to 3 years.

[enlinnyGoob]

I almost wanted to say 30 but that seemed kind of long so my guess was 3 years.

[BurdenRobert]

Where was the '3 minutes' option, Tildy?

OK. Maybe you were right... I do wonder WHY this is such common knowledge, though :P

[CHEAPSOFTOEMONLINE]

answer plz!?!?

[D6b2v1HA]

I'll give you a clue... the majority seem to have a pretty good idea about the answer.

[rowneigerie]

I must be a little old lady then lol.

I have numerous strands of pearls and bracelets .. I have white, pink, black, silver, multi strands, single strands, vintage strands .. you name it. The last strand I got was a Mikimoto single strand/bracelet she got on sale, I think they set my mother back about a grand lol (was my xmas gift).

[Swidemaiskikemu]

Pearls don't have to be for old ladies, I have lots of pearls, I'm 16 ffs!! lol


I lurve them..




By the way, the answer was 3 years.. They can take anywhere between 3-6 years.. It's VERRRRYYYYY unusual to get any less or longer... lol

My point has been proved!!

It's just common knowledge that a lot of people know..

[Nosmas]

I must be a little old lady then lol.

Pearls don't have to be for old ladies

Hey, I garden ffs. Only married women and old ladies garden. We're even.

[Kolokireo]

[vforvandetta]
