    I picked yellow gold for my burgundy strand. Red picked a yellow gold orbit clasp for VIP-55. I choose depending on the pearls' tones. I personally like white gold more, but I let the pearl decide. I think you could have a rose gold custom clasp made by PP. Worth asking...

    Sunseeker, thank you so much. I'm super excited to see VIP-55 once it's sent to me. I'm keeping Red's orbit clasp.

    Red -- did you hear me screaming? I just got off the phone with Erin regarding buying your strands. Let's switch this to PM so as not to bore the kind folks on here...

    For those who might be interested in the deep lavender strand and lovely fireball I bought (I thought they went great together), I returned them because I liked the Edison strand more. Now I'm fighting Red's perfect logic above. I did, however, buy the darling #4 GSS Lantern. I can hardly...

    Red! This is very dangerous logic, with evidence provided by your ongoing non-regret, for me to read!!!

    BWeaves, how nice that your ring waited two long years for her rightful owner. What a lovely and unusual piece. Wear it in good health! Katbran, thank you. That is PP's standard "will string to 18" length. No pearls added. Sometimes I'll have two or four pearls removed from a strand to...

    Red, the deep lavenders are well matched and I consider them a "dusty" deep lavender. The medium burgundy are larger pearls overall, definitely with more red, and some blue and bronze thrown in. It's just beautiful with wonderful luster.

    Purranha, mine arrived today, too! I was worried that "burgundy" wouldn't be quite the shade I liked. But man, are these pearls gorgeous! Frankly, they're making me reconsider the original deep lavenders... Glamour Shot and description "Naturally colored Edison Freshwater strand measuring...

    BTW -- it's so nice seeing strands going to homes that can truly appreciate them. Like Red's appreciation of the "historic" (in the pearl subculture) interest and original intent of her newest strand of Tahitians. That strand looks so much more beautiful on your neck than in the glamour shot.

    AAA or Freshadama

    Lavender is extremely tricky. They can have tones of blue, or pink, and even brown! Deep lavender is a rarity. I happened to take a shot of my lavenders for another thread. You can see my jumble of a triple strand in AAA seems pink in comparison to my newest, deepest single lavender strand...

    baby nurse, I can clearly see the color difference in your side-by-side shots. But not on your neck! You do you. But they look glorious to me as is. I've always been sorry to have missed out on that batch of baroque akoya. CathyKeshi, if you're reading. You know. The double you wore that...
