Pearl Identification Help

I absolutely love pearls, and have a few pairs of pearl earrings but generally know little about them aside from spotting real vs fake.

I saw these at a local auction and had to buy them, as I’ve always wanted a knotted pearl necklace. They had no info other than “cultured pearls”. They are definitely real, but I’m curious if anyone knows anything about the type of pearls (if even possible via photos)?

I’m NOT selling them or looking to profit in any way.

Thank you in advance for your time and help!

Just read another post on this thread about airport rental car places closing around 11:30pm and folks recommend Nooga Taxi.

The challenge here, is there are four adults and an infant traveling to Cloudland after we land. We land at midnight and intended on renting a car and car seat (multiple layovers so didn’t want to chance the airlines losing it).

Nooga recommended I talk to a different taxi service, as they don’t have car seats or large enough vehicles for that many people and a car seat.

Does anyone have any advice? Thank you in advance!

Bought at a local auction thinking it was ceramic with stone fish on it. We’ve never bought anything like this and just thought it looked cool.

Any info would help!

p.s., extremely naive not trying to offend

I keep seeing this seller say all of these things are carved opal but I’m suspicious (as a naive mineral person) and suspect it’s labradorite. Any insights?

Edit: they all sold at the local auction for 1) $68, 2) $67, and 3) $55
