PEARLS – THE CURRENT CRAZE FOR THE WORLD'S OLDEST GEM

So for her 1st episode of the 5th season, Carol talks to jeweller Chrissie Coleman Douglas about the origin and marketing of the pearl, while later she talks to Vogue contributing editor Jack Borkett about the pearl's place in the fashion world.
