    Do you style your pearls with accesories?

    Share away. I am always intrigued to see the unusual and unique. I tend to analyze everything, that is all.

    Do you style your pearls with accesories?

    I like the idea but I would rather the bar didn't cross the ear. Perhaps if it hooked nearer the head. It would also be more secure.

    Pearl and Diamond Shoes by Jada Dubai

    Looks like someone used their earrings to accessorize the shoes. It doesn't look like something that was designed as part of the shoe. Having said that, I wouldn't mind wearing them as earrings. Not at all.

    Pearl cluster necklace wanted

    If Kojima has something close to what you want, send them an email. They are very nice people and I am sure they would be willing to accommodate you and work within your budget.

    What the heck is this?

    And the varying sizes can be a big plus for some designs. For example, space them out with some tiny gemstone beads.

    What the heck is this?

    The pinks are dyed freshwater rice pearls. The other strand seem to be white freshies, as well. Considering the large size difference and unknotted, I am guessing that these were strays or left over from other projects and temporarily strung for safe keeping.

    It is strange that they are shutting down completely instead of selling the company.

    Favorite pearl studs

    Beautiful collection! I am a failed pearlie - I am not very fond of pearl studs. The one I wear sometimes is boring: a small 6mm akoya.

    Personalised Pearls

    There is also the matter of tracking exactly which oyster has your personalized nucleus. Personally, I would very much doubt it would be commercially viable. For a more personalized gift, I would choose an unique baroque pearl and design a piece around it, incorporating ideas and symbols that...

    Cultured South Sea Pearls. Will they last?

    I don't think an antique pearl is any indicator of how a pearl today will wear over the years. First, the museum pearl is a natural pearl, not a cultured pearl. Second, it was probably not worn everyday but put on for a party or dinner then carefully stored. It would not be proper to wear a...

    My Tahitians

    It is a lovely pendant and I can see why you wear it often. The blue compliments the colour of the pearl, which goes to show what a gamble this is. It wouldn't be as lovely if the pearl was greenish, for example.
