Pearlcat, they look very nice and I like the golden dyed coines very much. I have bought pearls a couple of times from them and have been very satisfied with them. Let us know once they arrive if they are like the pictures show them to be...

Skypearl, they look great on your mum?s neck! And I know that she adores them...

Congratulations, Ladies,you did pick beautiful pearls, each one of You!:):)

Hi members, perhaps the "Tahitian" with the coin pearls refers rather to their colour? The second picture are dyed freshwaters, if real at all... The price for the coin bracelet is ridiculous. I wonder if this seller ever can succeed in selling any pearls at all. But may be the ? are not...

Very nice pictures, Yikai. I like that model of digital caliper you have there as well. For the pearls, amazing sizes but just too large for my taste!

Very cute and most appropriate for spring feelings!

Hi Boo, that seems to be a great idea. I have to check if it would work for me even though for the moment I don?t have the needed material - pearls. Thanks.

Hi members, I really love to hear that you are going to try to do ropes of 100" however then some of you have to come forward with advice on how to lengthen the silkthread or Power Pro in an easy fathomable way - I have asked this before and got the answer that the knotter in question had the...

Thanks for the explanations. However, I hope you will have a less aggressive colour on the buttons, the blue draws all attention from the pearls.

Could you explain Mikimoto?s different grading scale, please? I would have thought that A1 was the best:p but as I never bought anything from them I did not bother to investigate until now...:)

Lauren, you are absolutely right! I haven?t thought about it so much but it is true - my knots are a little bit from the place the ought to be and pulling the two strands apart lets the knot glide elegantly to the pearl and it does not look stiff at all! Thanks for describing this!

Thanks Caitlin and Pattye for your funny comments - indeed ice cream tastes deliciously, however using the ice cream box is working so great because the plastic is very soft and so I can squeeze it in my drawer in my special "pearl closet" with a lot of drawers. I also use tool-boxes, special...

Hi Pearlcat, why don?t you use doubled thread as most of us do? Is there some special reason? The doubled thread also takes the double weight so it makes the necklace even more safe...:)

Incredibly well done photos. When I saw the Hermit crab I was reminded of the ones we had many years ago...

I can appreciate the work it must have taken to get everything together but I did like it better the way it was before even if navigation is easier now. You know the saying: less is more... the site with its many items lacks the elegance and background from earlier. Each and every one of the...

I second that, Beth. Beautiful pieces and a lovely model. Very nice designs and colours!

For my tools I have a used plastic icecream box, they are big enough so everything fits.

Hi Julie, you will get there very soon I believe. It is not the knots that will get that result but the MATCHING AND the knots. My advice: do train your eyes to get that "floating" image by matching the size and the thickness of the pearls and you will be there in no time....:):)

Hi Julie, of course there is no necklace with invisible knots, it was perhaps not quite what I wanted to express but in general with Power Pro the case is that the larger the pearls, the "smaller" the knots look. That goes for sizes that are not too thick, of course. As I said before, 15 - 30...

Hi members, I too think that the above strand with the left bend are the Tahitians. However, if I can get a freshwater strand with those lovely "Tahitian"-colours, this might be a good way to get pearls much cheaper and still getting a certain "Tahitian-feeling".
