Steve, see below a more challenging design (imagine it the other way around - white gold, yellow or brown diamants and a golden pearl). This is of course the fourth finger version. This belongs to my jewelrer Marcel, he is good in risky designs.

Hand washing is a disaster. I remember about the pearl when I dry hands, so I just pray that the soap was a soft one... I am already getting used to the schedule of the heating systemr: dressing up - no rings, going to work - ring on, comeing home - ring off, after dinner - ring on, going to...

Purlgurl, I join the choir or enthusiasts - what an original modern design! Stiil question unanswered: is it a FW pearl there? NZNP: just for the collection of 'protected' pearls: The first one is ring with a kasumi pearl from Sarah. The second is a Bulgary ring with a large akoya pearl.

Wow, these are real beauties!

Exactly! That's what I think too - a special order with a relatively modern pearl, immitating an old design and perhaps using old diamonds.

Thanks everyone again for all the compliments. I still consider this ring to be one of my most beautiful pieces although there remain more questions than answers. Quite a detective stoty: 1) The antique dealer who sold it said that it was made as a special order (elsewhere), presumably in...

Hi everybody, A couple of years ago I started a thread trying to find out the origin of a ring which was sold in an antique shop in Brussels as an old ring (1930-1940) with a biwa pearl - https://www.pearl-guide.com/forum/freshwater-pearls/2031-biwa-pearls-1930-1940s.html I guess the old man...

Nice article indeed! Olga

Josh, I am not sure that the audience is so small. The combination of such a breathtakingly exotic place as French Polynesia and such an exquisite luxury product as a black pearl may be really a good twist. Especially when it is clear that the photographer, the writer and the farmer are the same...

Josh, did you ever think of publishing a sort of a photoalbum with comments? Your photos are as good (breathtaking!) as texts - I am sure it would be a great success!

Josh, you made my day again:) Each time I look at your photos I start wondering what am I doing in this heavily urban part of the world and is it time for change. Beautiful!

I have a similar mabe pearl and also wonder what can it be. It is from Legend Blue, bought long ago. Here http://www.legendblue.com/page.jsp?s=&p=1006 It looks a bit strange for a Mabe although no doubt that it is real. Olga

What is the texture, is it all silver? In fact I like the second design even better. I think pearls are mounted there in a more stable way. Olga

I've seen these pearls. I even have some (got as a present). Misaki does not work with real pearls, and its X-treme Luster line is a well done fake. Something like Majorca. My DIL has their ring with a big black pearl. Looks indeed like a Tajitian but is too perfect and completely deprived of...

Yes indeed! My daughter-in-law, who was visiting me on the day I got my strand, looked at it politely and said: "But they are not real, aren't they?"

Sheri, earrings are just amazing! I really love your extravagant designs! Olga

Sabine, welcome to the forum! The European gang is getting stronger and stronger :) Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce somebody with many years experience in pearl busuness, exquisite taste and endless devotion to pearls. Not to speak about being almost a professional in photographing...

Ivona, by the way - did your strand arrive? Can not wait for photos...;) Olga

Hi Sheri, I join the choir of compliments. My favorites are the 'antique' earings with three pearls, a piece of art indeed. If only I would be a person to wear longish earrings...(sigh). It is a pleasure to look at your creations, very artistic! Olga

Wow, Steve, this looks really great on your wife! My compliments! I hope that when we get more sunshoine in our wet country, it will be the same powerful effect as with your necklace! Olga
