Show Us Your Pearls In Action!!!

Thanks so much, Purr! Sarah has a knack for tweaking the conventional and creating the unconventional with the surprise placement of a pearl or pearls.

Pomelo, your new strand of Akoya looks so pretty on you! Akoya pearls do know how to glow, don’t they?!

Fancy colors of Tahitians- Bubbles and sister strand both from Kojima. I added T‘s to the little discs made by a San Francisco metal artist.

Hi All! Long hiatus all year because I’ve been so busy with work 🥹

But after a busy year with alot of successful projects, I decided to treat myself to my FIRST tahitian strand!

These measure 8-10mm, and it is a 20inch strand. I used a bracelet of mine to extend it today, but it usually sits right at the clavicle

Yum! I am a staunch believer in treating oneself 👍

The colours are fantastic, and the strand looks so good with the alternating light, medium and dark body colour! A beautiful multicolour strand :love:
 
Thank you, Douglas and Pella! Pella, if I remember correctly I think the dangles are topaz.

Beautiful pearls as always, BWeaves! And can’t wait to see what pearls you chose. I was able to catch yesterday’s event LIVE, but everyone was claiming so fast! I put my name on the waitlist and actually will get the pair of earrings I wanted. Yay!

How fun to see you, Purr! Haha- same thing- the HK event had me digging into my collection. I didn’t get any of those cool Tahitian soufflés back when, but I pulled out my tri-colored ombres for lunch today.

SS and Tahitian ombres. The two shorter necklaces are from Kojima, and the rope is from Cees.

Congratulations on your first Tahitians. Tahitians look wonderful on men.
 
Thanks so much, CatMom! I’ve been wanting to ask you how you’ve been doing with your wire-wrapping?

Some sentimental pearls… The Akoya pearl in the ring was a gift my grandma gave to me from a trip to Japan. I was in elementary school and this was my first pearl. The pearl came in a purple velvet hinged box. The inside of the box was also purple velvet and the pearl sat in the center on a purple velvet pedestal. My mom had it set for me some years later. The Akoya earrings were a gift from my parents when they returned from a trip to Japan. I’ve also been wearing some sentimental rings in addition to the pearl rings but haven’t mentioned them. Next to the Akoya ring is an opal ring that my other grandmother wore everyday until the day she passed. All worn with a necklace and bracelet from Takahashi. Unfortunately the weather is so dreary for pics...

Absolutely gorgeous jeg! Thanks for asking but I haven't really done anything for a while. I'm still recovering from a bad bout of Covid back in August. I'm just now getting some strength and stamina back. I really want to try a tin cup sometime.
 
Thanks so much, Katbran and CatMom! CatMom, I’m so sorry to hear you’ve been under the weather. That’s a long time to not be feeling well.:( I’m looking forward to seeing your future projects when you’re up to it!

Bracelet of J.Hunter Fiji pearls from PP. Tahitian necklace also from PP. Earrings are little h, and the Tahitian ring is from Hawaii.

Wonderful! You really know how to capture pearl jewelry. You could become a specialized pearl photographer if you ever wanted to!
The Tahitian ensemble is fantastic!

I wish you get better soon!
I also contracted COVID this year...I have a nasty little cough that just won't go away. But it is getting better and better with time.
