NewEGG Big Oyster Pearl Party Freshwater Cultured Oval Beads (5-7mm 28 PCs/Lot) Oysters with Pearl Inside for Women (5-7mm)

This was an awesome experience to open it. My friend and I did our 2d Semester Presentation in Biology about Oysters and Clams, and opened this specimen in front of the whole class. It was a pretty big chance taken to open it not knowing if the contents were true to the advertisement, but it worked out perfectly!!! The two things I want to talk about are the smell and the "Oyster." so 1. THE SMELL WON"T BE THERE IF YOU REFRIGERATE. -I wasn't going to refrigerate it but then my friend suggested it and I searched it up and apparently to deal with the smell you can refrigerate it to make it waaayyyy less noticeable. I mean, it smelled a bit, but after dealing with multiple dissections in Biology, (Thanks Mr. S), it wasn't too bad lol 😂 2. The "Oyster" -The reason I put that in quotations is because this creature is actually not an Oyster. It's a clam. They're different specimens, but still in the same class Bivalva, meaning two valves. (Your Bio lesson for the day ;) ) So with all that said, it was an amazing experience and we got an A+ on this presentation. We did find 27/28 pearls, but I'd say that that is very good. (some were stuck on the inside of nacre shell) But yeah! Now these pearls will be great for making jewelry and keeping and such. Some of them have a super cool shape. One even looks like a space-ship/Saucer. Pretty awesome how beautiful God's creation is. 😁 Thanks so much for reading this far. I hope this review helps you out a bit as far as information goes. 🧡 Have an amazing day!!! 😊🌅

Very disappointed in the pearl that was sent to us. Purchased one earlier in the year and it was fabulous. This one not so much, we opened it up and there was 15 pearls and I do believe they stated 27+.

these are amazing and fun to open

I would give a five star for the pearls, of course some pearls were really round but some were just weird even tho I expected that I got 1 perfect pearl but I kept gagging over the bad smell. Also I suggest a strong unlikely to bend knife because it is hard to open the oyster. Last thing is that if you are not opening the oyster immediately you should put it in the refrigerator.

Came with 32 so extra, they were all different shapes but most nearly same exact color. A few I threw away because to tiny or 1 was damaged. I would still give this as a gift I still was thrilled with this purchase. I didn't have any issues with the smell, soak in water first.

The description said 32 pieces, but I only got 21 pieces. Only one looked round enough, but had a flat dark side. The rest of them had a lot of black spots, were badly misshapen and were too small. The inside of the shell looks beautiful after I cleaned it. It was super hard to open it, but I finally did open it! The smell was not too bad!

My fiancé & I did this together as a date. We had a lot of fun! The oyster does have a mildewed smell to it but when we opened it, it didn’t smell bad at all. The pearls are decent, most are wonky shaped, have bands/ridges or are flat on one side but overall they’re cute pearls. Some of them have a film on them, I might take a damp cloth & a pinch of salt gently to them & see if that helps. I will definitely be buying from this seller again.

I got this large oyster for a party I was hosting for my daughter. I’ve always seen oyster openings and thought they would be fun! The oyster is huge! Like really big! I was surprised and excited about its size. I have read before it’s a good idea to store it in the fridge until you’re ready to open it. I did that and I soaked it in a bowl of water for a bit before opening. I had no smell to mine and I think storing it in the fridge and in water helped. It was VERY difficult to open. It took me about 5 mins to pry it open and had to have a friend help me. Once I got it open I was so excited to find the pearls. The act of hunting for the pearls was fun, however, I think my oyster was rotting. There was a ton of green nastiness in the meat of the oyster. We found 25 pearls in our oyster, but the majority of the oysters were small - like tiny! There’s no way we could use those to put in a cage necklace. I think we ended up with maybe 4 or 5 that we could use. I did also purchase, from another vendor, the smaller oysters that have just one pearls in them and I was much more pleased with those. I don’t think I’d ever buy this one again.
