Talk:Baroque pearl

The term "baroque"
Being educated in art I always believed the word "baroque" was used to describe the style and period of Art first and then this type of pearl; but, it is the reverse. The Word acually comes from the description of the pearl and THEN was used to describe Art, and a period and a type of music. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Www.sunshinepearls.com (talk • contribs) 03:17, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Photo not representative
The photo is a bad example. The pearls in Empress Farah's crown are actually superb examples of round and well-formed drop pearls; there's nothing baroque about them. The Iranian Crown Jewels do contain numerous fantastic baroque pearls over an inch long, though.90.213.196.31 (talk) 02:14, 21 December 2009 (UTC)
