Richard Wright, appraiser 10 Market St, Ipswich , Ma. Rainbow Jewelers, 01938, I was given a one strand natural pearls. The clasp was different and I did not know how to lock it after dropping the pearls off my neck a couple of times I thought I would take the pearls into a shop and have the clasp changed, So I brought it to Rainbow Jewelers. I wanted to shop local, I did not realize I would be robbed. I showed the pearls to Richard and as he examined them he delightedly said, "These are very old pearls." I told him my problem with the clasp and he said I wanted them restrung, and I said no, they were fine the way they were and I told him several times "I did not want them restrung." When I went back the same clasp was on the pearls and he had restrung them and about ten of the pearls were missing. I mentioned this when I picked it up and the restringing job that I did not want was poorly done as one side of the string had a new kink in it. I was so very upset, I left very angry trying to figure out how I could get my pearls back, I do not recommend this store to anyone. My directions were not adhered to and I paid him 120$ for poorly done work and missing pearls the necklace is now to short for me to wear comfortably. . I also had ordered a pair of earrings converted from French to posts. I do not care that the work was ugly but just want my pearls back ,,alll of them.
