I love black. Of course we have a big white dog and a little white dog and they both shed all over everything, esp. my black clothes, lol.

I am so glad a couple of other people posted they follow this blog; that means probably even more people who didn't post follow it too. I think P-G has a penchant for for us old folks! And some day the official organs of the cultured pearl world will notice how great old lady models are, for...

lolo perle- I don't think I have ever posted on one of your threads, before, but I think it is time I join the chorus and tell you how much I love your pearls. You bring a unique treasure to Pearl-Guide.com that we are unlikely to see elsewhere. Tell me, has anyone ever seen a gold strand with...

It looks like if you wear a hat, you can get away with anything.LOL

She is definitely a "Pearl Advancer" :D Yes. It was my quest for a long rope that first brought me to Pearl Paradise back in 2004. I bought an endless rope about 24", and was invited to join Pearl-Guide. I did and later asked for knowledge of LOOOONG ropes. The concensus at the time was...

I just had to add this photo. Guess my clothes aren't so wild, after all, LOL!

I am always looking for appropriate things to wear to ruckuses and pretty much failed at it. BUT, no more! I have a fashion icon. She is one of the "stars" of my new blog sign-up to Advanced Style. Well I can't get the hair right, but wow. this blog is FULL of Advanced style...

Wow. Was I wrong about the probably value of the clasp, but I am so glad. That is a great deal for a beautiful strand. Good for you!

Hi Remulus. I just found this thread today. I hope you took lots of pix. Your story about Zhuji will live on forever in the internet, so I hope you tell all! I love your enthusiasm for pearls. This is the right place to share that! You probably already know people from pearl-guide.com go to...

You didn't say how much you paid.........??? Anyway, I think it looks like an akoya mildly baroque necklace, a nice one at that. The bumps and uneven surface are called "growth characteristics" and you describe what seem to be akoya growth characteristics. If the carat is not marked on the...

I love the variations on the theme- endless possibilities there. I congratulate Hisano again, for her creativity!

I don't usually have time to read everything here and often skip showusyour pearls, but for some reason I caught a glimpse of this set. I think it should be entered in a design contest. It is another stunning piece of creativity coming out of Pearl Paradise!!!!! I didn't read the print only...

A Layman's Guide. From Kari's Pearls, a treatise by Maria Haws. I see this is from 2002, so maybe we already have it listed. http://www.ctsa.org/files/publications/CTSA_1276316728619239483681.pdf Just what I want!

The corkscrew pearls are grabbing my eye! Wow!

I went over there and looked. I don't know about any other kind of jewelry, but their silver Southwest/Indian jewelry is authentic and very typically priced.

That is doublespeak for BUYER BEWARE! LOL. Only this isn't a laughing matter. Someone needs to write a good buyers guide for pearls for over there.

They mention in their description how they came to be full-time on eBay- but obviously to make it your only source of income, you need a few moneymakers like 7mm "Tahitian blue" pearls. They will probably not let go of this item and price it right, it's too much profit to toss away. We can...

You might tell them that we are discussing them and have a link to that page going. Maybe some pearl police will notice the link, LOL. You haven't mentioned their name or shop on this thread, yet, but if you do, this thread will come up when the shop name or the vender's name comes up on the...

I just looked and they are up to $55.00 on the bid. That is WAY overpriced. The rest of their jewelry seems to be more or less what they claim it to be, so I would trust their word on the pearls, if I didn't know. by more or less, I mean I think those are akoyas, even if dated wrong.

I would be happy with us all camping on the floor of the barn you guys got married in, in between the tables, LOL, just to be with a group of pearl-guiders and plenty of caviar and the sound of the ocean. Lacking that, however, the place with gold pillars is just fine. :cool:.
