I am continuing my research about ladies in power. Just came across two photos of Madeleine Albright. Can anybody explain me, if these really huge golden South Sees on the first picture and Tahitians on the second one? Both look a bit strange, so I have my doubts (the golden ones are so huge -...

Caitlin, I fully agree - mine are becoming more and more beautiful every day. The more you look, the more get attached to them :)

Salem, yes, I agree, try to look at it in a different light. I had about the same feeling when I got it - there was so much excitement of expectation, and the UPS promised it on Friday and in the last moment has postponed until Monday... oh no...tensions rise... and then it comes, and I open...

Blaire, sorry for ignorance: it is first time that I hear about Ikechos. What is so special about this mussel? Is it also in China? Why does it produce such silky surface? Is it something new or did I just miss it? Could this also be Ikecho? The glow is very different from my other FW pearls...

I think it's just my camera which is good (...plus some filming skills...:D). I can not believe I am the only lucky one to get all those delicious green and golden ones:) Thank you Jeremy and Mia, what a treat!

I also got my exotics yesterday. First under artificial light they seemed to be all in pink-lavender colour but then we got a bright sunshine here and it just exploded with colours! I asked for more green-beige colours, and I indeed got them. This are ovals 8,5-9,5 (094-15). Thry are in lfe more...

Blaire, your Ikechos are indeed absolutely stunning! My earings are also with rose gold :) Valeria, I do have large FW rounds 12 mm. But still not as large as 13... And those are of course not so perfect as the small ones. But still look quite impressive. Here they are:

Thank you, Blaire! Quite a compliment for such a beginner as me :). What is Ikechos? (sorry for ignorance)

Wow, it looks like I've accidentally won a lottery :). It was love from the first sight!

I just saw a film yesterday, it was 'De-loverly' about Cole Porter. His beautiful wife was sleeping there with her pearls on. Nothing more than pearls - but they were ON :D

Hi everybody, In a nervous anticipation of my exotics I came across gorgeous earings which in my understanding should match the big ovals, as well as my already existing long beige-apricot baroque strand from VoP-Munich. The FW pearls in the earings are perfect and very large - 15x12 mm. No...

Oh my goodness! I just traced down that my delivery is on the UPS vehicle right now, can come any moment (was scheduled for Monday - but what a surprise!). I just can not wait to see it!!!

Here we are here in Amsterdam - yes, it is true, one can buy Majorca at a good price here. I got a set (16 inches necklace and earings) a couple of years ago for only EUR 50 (which was just 50% down from the original price during the winter sale). It looks very pretty indeed but somehoe the...

Well... I started with akoya and it took some time until I got interested in FW pearls. But my lovely, lovely akoya strand still remains as the first love. I have a special feeling for it:) And... I have two sons and no daughters, so next generation problem is not very much on the agenda...:)

Jody, they don't have baroques in Legend Blue, as far as I know... Olga

Here is the photo of the same necklace which I got from the shop before ordering. This is the same necklace as on my previous photo. As you see the product itself is much more encouraging :)

Oh, I see! But if these are pictures from VoP-Munich, it is indeed the quality of photos. The photos they've sent to me when I was ordering were also not exciting. But I knew what I was doing because a month before I was there in the shop during my business trip to Munich and got a similar...

Hi! I think it's just the quality of your pictures (on which the second version looks better to me but I guess in life they are about the same). I have a similar one and this is one of my favourites, it has such an amazing glow!!! I just can not leave it out of hands! Just try those of yours in...

Hi Jody, Here is just an idea about earings for baroque pearls. These are Phillipinean FW with a soft creamy glow, they are in fact not so white as on the photo, rather creamy but I could not get it right with a camera. They pass to any colour and somehow 'adapt' their own colour to what you...

Oh great! I am now even more curious because I happenned to order the same two strands - oval 8,5-9,5 (290-14) and round 7-8 (94-15). At least I see now how it looks. Thank you, Pandaexpress! Olga
