Okay, PSS is officially out of control. (Thanks to Nathalie from TheJourneyofaGem for the image.)

Those look like perfect jeans and a T-shirt pearls. Wear them around the camper and walking in the forrest.

JEG: I never would have put that necklace together with those earrings before I discovered Pearl-Guide. I love the combo. More jeans and a T-shirt pearls, today. Mismatched earrings go with everything. This pair is becoming a favorite. Golden and white South Sea pearls with Tahitian pearl...

Jeans and a T-shirt pearls. Carved Tahitian pearl pendant from Kamoka pearl farm. Tin-cup necklace of Tahitian keshi pearls from Kojima Pearl. Mismatched earrings of Tahitian and South Sea pearls from OceanRhyme.

I've seen a lot of pre WWII fakes that have sterling silver clasps, and a lot of vintage Mikimoto's with sterling silver clasps. You really can't go by the clasps. I have fake clasps on some of my really good pearls, too. And gold clasps on some good fakes.

Something different today. Turquoise and natural white Hanadama akoya pearls from Pearl Paradise. Earrings from OceanRhyme. Vintage Native American turquoise necklaces from Goold's Dept. Store. The tubular necklace is made by cutting disks of turquoise, threading them together, and then rolling...

Men in PEARLS! Merrily's nephew looks amazing in her pearls. He's giving DEX (the cat) some competition.

New pearl necklaces from Kojima. Dyed freshwaters with various gemstone beads and jade dangles. Pendant is also freshwater, and I think dyed, from Kojima. Earrings are natural color, mismatched Tahitian dangles from Kamoka. These pearl earrings go with almost everything I own. They're...

Lovely ring! I love your colorful akoya tin-cup, JEG. I'm a little jealous that I can't do wire wrapping. I tried it, but I'm crap at it. I admire anyone who can do it. I love tin-cups, and I LOVE colorful, especially blue akoyas. Today, I'm wearing a classic 9mm Hanadama studs from PP...

Today was Mini-RUCKUS South East 2! Merrily and I had tea and scones and pearls at Tiger's house! And then I got home and these arrived from Kojima, and Greg did something he's never done before. He grabbed them and put them on. And then he refused to smile for the "blackmail photo" as...

They'll improve with a nice bath and a restringing.

Love the necklace and bracelet, JEG. The black pieces really set off the pearls. Green for me today. Souffle' pearl earrings stuffed with reclaimed emeralds and teeny tiny seed pearls by little h (Hisano Shepherd of Pearl Paradise). Endless necklace of emeralds, jade, multicolored...

Thanks again to Hisano for fixing my long Kojima Tahitian keshi tin-cup necklace that I broke. The first clasp I picked (small orbit) really did not work when turning this long tin-cup into a double strand necklace. So I asked Hisano to replace it with a square push clasp that is designed for...

High quality, cultured akoya pearls. Earrings are Hanadama studs from Pearl Paradise. Top necklace was bought by my Mom when I was born. The pearls themselves are probably 70 years old. The middle necklace was bought by my Mom in the 1980s or 90s, so they are around 30 to 40 years old. The...

I originally went with my 3 strand choker this morning, but then I remembered I had a doctor's appointment for my neck, and switched to my reborn pearls.
