Parrot Lady - So pretty. Love those overtones. I pulled out some old favorites to wear today along with my mixed Kojima rope. Earrings are white SSP set in red gold along with a carved moonstone and diamonds. Designed and set by Stephen Vincent Design in Minneapolis. Next is a strand of...

Next I added the green body peacock strand from yesterday along with my darkest Tahitian strand of aubergine pearls. Somehow, I got the overtones to pop on the second shot, a rarity for me here in my locale.

Thank you Katbran, pattye, SydK, Marianne, and Charlotta. I took a few more Tahitian pearl color comparison shots today. First up, showing the dramatic difference in color between my white Tahitians and the new blue-gray rope.

I doubt that this pearl represents evidence of pearling by early man, since it predates humankind by about 80 million years.

I pulled out my green body peacock Tahitians to see the difference between strands. I'll be enjoying this new rope a lot this winter.

Beautiful strands and wonderful colors, jeg. Thank you for the nice comments, jeg, Marianne, Charlotta, CathyKeshi, pattye, Katbran, and JerseyPearl. My rope arrived this afternoon. I adore the color. This beauty is delightful. I'll try to capture some of the sweet color. There are...

That copper necklace is gorgeous. Fabulous colors. I was eyeing that light silver bracelet with the beautiful almost golden drop shapes. I saw it disappeared a little while ago. Thanks for taking away the temptation. I’ll be interested in how you use those pearls. I’m still waiting for the...

I like the ombré strand endless. I’m sure you will be getting more pearls in the future, some of which will be perfect for those vintage clasps.

Thanks, jeg. I think it is going to be the color I’m hoping for. This is the best photo yet.

My new Tahitian pearl necklace is on its way. John kindly snapped a photo for me first. So pretty. Now, I'm getting really excited.

Look at you! Well done. Very pretty necklace.

Thanks for the report, AzFlyGirl. I'm so excited for you. I hope you enjoy your new stand, and be sure to share pictures when it arrives. I was in contact with John earlier this week as well, and he also looked at my strands and says that thy should combine beautifully. So, I'm sure...

Look at those gorgeous strands with the lovely grey outfits. Great inspiration for fall and winter. Love the mixed HK rope and that giant Kojima golden drop is a treasure.

I picked out six strands and did a live chat where I gave them the strand numbers and asked them to pick the two best for a rope. I’m sure there are other ways, but it only took them a few minutes to come back that these two were the ones. There is really no way to match body colors using...

That very light silver with blue overtones looks like a beauty. I wanted a medium silver so it would be different from my white Tahitians, but I agree that looked like a beautiful strand. Please post pictures when it arrives.

I’m about halfway through Jeremy’s Facebook presentation today and what comes through loud and clear is how much he loves Tahitian pearls and what he sees in their beauty. The Tahitians presented in the different Pearl Paradise sales really vary. These well-matched baroques for about $500 will...

I know, jeg. If there had still been two copper bodies for a rope (sigh..), but you got there first. The happy news is we get to see your photos.

It seems that many of this year's Tahitians are well matched drop/baroque shaped pearls, with a grey body color and light overtones. There were a couple of stunning copper body color Tahitian strands, but those went fast! I have been wearing a lot of neutral grey clothing colors lately, and...

The Pearl Paradise October Tahitian sale has begun for 2019. For weeks I have been watching Jeremy and Hisano on social media sorting Tahitian pearls in Tahiti. The Tahitian Love promotion began yesterday, and I spent all evening looking at pearls and feeling the love.

Headed into the office today wearing my 12-14.7mm circled baroque Tahitian necklace from last fall's PP VIP sale. Cherry Tahitian stud earrings about 8.5mm were selected by me at the 2017 ruckus.
