Show Us Your Pearls In Action!!!

Thank you, lary007. I really love the soft colors of vintage Akoya. Thanks, BWeaves- you have a great collection of huggies. I haven’t brought myself to invest in any pearl charms or huggies, so this little experimental pair is it. That pendant is all around unique. The shape, color and bail are just striking.

A golden Akoya necklace with a white Akoya rope, both from Takahashi. Worn with FW earrings I made.

Afternoon tea at one of my favorite places to go during the holidays. Wearing a golden SS ombre rope from PP, wispy Akoya earrings from Takahashi/PP Live event, and a mini Akoya wave necklace from Cees.

What a cute tea setup! The pearls were a perfect compliment.

You are perfectly pearled out for that afternoon tea!

Thanks so much, Douglas, CatMom, lary007, and Jeremy!
And from a quiet, refined afternoon tea with a special friend… to a hopping birthday party with a group of friends celebrating an 80th birthday! Wearing a golden SS pendant from Katbran, and a bracelet worn as a necklace. The pearls are J. Hunter Fiji pearls I chose on a visit to the PP vault several years ago.

Black sweats and white pearls. JEG inspired me to mix my white pearl colors. Mikimoto earrings. Natural white Hanadama rope from PP with a disco ball screw clasp. My first pearl rope of pinked akoyas that I bought myself back in 1982, with a disco ball screw clasp. Betty Davis' teeth silver white freshwater keshi necklace from Kojima. I got this right after watching All About Eve, and the necklace reminded me of Betty Davis' teeth in that movie. (Yes, I give most of jewelry weird names.)

I couldn't take a full length photo of the necklaces being worn, because the black sweatshirt messed with the camera settings and washed out the pearls.

Visiting Dad today. Natural white Hanadama rope from PP. New blue akoya and white teeny tiny keshi rope from PP. Spring Rain ombre' blue pendant from Kojima with a white gold Viking knit choker. Dyed drops with white topaz silver hoops from Kojima. The white topaz sparkle like little diamonds.

I thought about making some "replica" earrings with the intense blue akoyas and diamond earring findings from a previous PP Live event, but they just got too expensive, and I kept looking at these inexpensive Kojima earrings and thinking, "But these look so good."

That new blue Akoya is so pretty and will look fantastic with so many of your other pearls, BWeaves. And yay to mixing your whites!

The inner Tahitian strand is from Kamoka, and the outer is from Hawaii. The cherry Tahitian studs are from a PP Hong Kong live event.

OOO, gorgeous T's, JEG!

I don't put up a Christmas tree, so I decorated me with baubles. All Kojima, except for the really intense strand from Pacific Pearls. Necklaces are freshwater pearls. Earrings are Kasumi pearls with rose cut amethysts. Yes, I'm wearing a merino wool sweatshirt, because it's cold in Florida today, and pearls go with everything.



I can't stop looking at all the colors of these pearls.
