You pay a fee and you get your choice of an oyster w/a guaranteed pearl (human made). You have the option to purchase a setting at the party.

What is it...:confused:
It's a home party which I'm typically WAY not into. But I think they look fun and it just so happens that one of my girlfriends is a consultant so I'm going to host a party to help her get started.
Basically she brings a buttload of oysters that have pearls in them. You pick your oysters and open them to see what kind of pearl you've got. They have a book of settings that you can have your pearl set in.
I did something very similar in Silver Spring, FL when I was in highschool and its a very fond memory.

The pearls are cultured (ie: sand or the like is put into the oyster to make it form a pearl) not man made.

The pearls are cultured (ie: sand or the like is put into the oyster to make it form a pearl) not man made.
A person (or maybe even a machine) injects sand into the shell, thus agitating it to form a pearl. This is not something done out in the wild in nature. Thus, man-made (or cultured/lab created) as you call it. :smile:

I know what cultured is that's why I said it. You're obviously having a problem with what man made is. Man made means made by man.
Man, machine or even a monkey can force sand into an oyster to make it form a pearl, the oyster still makes the pearl.
Man made pearls are not from oysters at all. :yay:

My wife had one a week ago. Everyone had a blast. Our four year old was tapped to pick out the oysters, and he picked the best ones of the night.
No one left disappointed.
Good luck.

I'm not hung up on words at all. There is a big difference in a cultured and man made pearl. I was simply clarifying so that people didn't get the wrong idea.

ok. I've been fighting with myself for months on whether to ask this question or not... Sorry Pix it is off topic but
Will someone please explain to me how someone can reply to a post and quote it, but no where does the original post show up in the thread..... I do not see where Lance has posted in this thread yet chasey and others have replied/quoted his post.....
Or am I really losing it? Maybe I need to go back to smoking........

Lance is a tool. He thinks it's really cool for him to post, then delete what he posted. Exciting, huh? :killingme
