The Devine Sarah pendant from Kojima. Kasumi pendants on diamond hoops. Kojima Kasumi in my right ear and Hisano's Favorite in my left ear. Hisano's Favorite has the diamond bail. Sarah's has the ruby bail.

Hisano and I played with turning the Kasumi pearl every which way. I think Hisano liked the purple face forward because it was the cleanest and shinest. I wanted some blue on top. I picked a bail that doesn't have a "front" so that the pearl can roll around and show all faces. All three...

And Hisano's favorite Kasumi pearl is here! I decided on a little h yellow gold diamond bail because it matched the rose gold ruby bail on my Kasumi pendant from Kojima. This way, I can wear both pendants as earrings on my diamond hoop earrings. Let me roll them around so you can see all...

Pearlgirl12: I used to think I didn't like Tahitians, either, because all I ever saw were dark strands. Once I saw pastels, and circles, and really colorful and shiny ones, I was in love.

66% Kamoka chested today. Ocean's Cove Tahitian earrings. La Petite Perlagrina pendant from Kamoka. Small, but very colorful and very shiny. I can't shake the feeling the crab is tweaking my nipples.

Take a look a KariPearls website, and compare your pearl to the natural found clam pearls that she has for sale. https://www.karipearls.com/clam-pearls.html Your pearl has a great shape, but doesn't appear to have the flame pattern that is so desirable.

I just went through the Pearls As One course to read through the new sections. The section on Golden SS pearls says the highest quality may have a tiny pinprick per pearl. Your strand looks very well matched. I would think they would be much more expensive if there were absolutely no...

The clasp is legit. The pearls are almost perfect. Those dimples are so minor compared to other SS pearls I've seen. I think you've got a good strand. Unless the price was so low that you're suspicious?

I don't know for golden South Sea pearls. They look perfect in your photos. How noticeable are the dimples?

Could be quartz, too. But the pink are definitely not pearls.

Wow! They look like 18K gold. Gorgeous.

The white pearls look like Chinese freshwater pearls. The pink beads are not pearls, but look like rhodochrosite. They look pretty together.

So many familiar faces. Enjoy!!!! This was fabulous. Thank you for live streaming PBTB. Thank you Sarah for putting this on. Thank you Jeremy for having PP live stream it. Congratulations Jeremy on Pearls as One and the Pearl Association!!!! Douglas, great talk, as always. And I...

The finished jewelry from Takahashi is still in Japan. Hisano told me yesterday that they're doing the finishing on the pearls that are already set in finished jewelry. Maybe I'll have a piece to show by next week. And my Kasumi pearl is being set. I could post photos of Pomme de la Mer...

Take them out of the plastic containers, put them on a white paper towel, in the shade in natural light, and take a photo in focus. That will help us determine what these are. I live in Florida. If these were found on the beach, they're probably beads or glass that has been tumbled by the...

Oh yes. I also hold the pearl and Serafil like that when going back through the pearls to try to avoid splitting the original thread with the beading needle.

lary007: Love your T's! And I JUST got off the Zoom with Hisano this minute. The Wishbone setting was too small for the Kasumi pearl. It would have looked weird. But I was already leaning towards a little h, yellow gold, round, diamond bail, because it would be the exact same shape and...

OH NOES!!! I'm doooooomed. And THANK YOU!!! Virtual meeting with Hisano today to decide how to set Hisano's favorite Kasumi pearl from the Kasumi Live Event. I'm wearing little h earrings, enhancer and tin-cup.

I e-mailed PP and asked if there were any pistachios in the next PP Live event and I was told no. Hum. I just checked the photo on Facebook. Some of those strands look pistakio-ee! I love that big blue strand and the white strand next to it. Someone put me on Ban Island, NOW. I do...

It's a bit more fiddly, but exactly the same. You just have to wait until you're done restringing both strands before doing the last few pearls to attach to the clasp. You could also try starting in the middle and working towards the clasp from both sides, to make sure the middle pearls align.
