Beautiful pearls. The tin cup looks great on you. It's so delicate and feminine.

Jeremy, thank you for the info.

Hello PGers, I have some questions regarding the PSL. Can I send my akoya strand directly to the PSL for grading (possibly as hanadama) or does the PSL only grade pearls for large vendors? How much does it cost to get a strand graded? What is the turnaround time?

GemGeek, Your pearls so beautiful!! I am now feeling the need for some Hanadama pearls.:D I wish I lived near PP. Maybe I should visit my sister-in-law; she lives in LA.:p Thank you for the comparison photos. They are very helpful in showing the differences between the strands.

Dear lionlaw, Your torsade is so beautiful!! I really like it worn with the clasp in the front. It's showstopper.:)

Dear DiaDiva, You have some beautiful pearls. Your metallic silver strand looks especially pretty on you. Btw, welcome to the Pearl-Guide. I am also on tPF and share your love of purses and pearls.:D

Your Tahitian strand is gorgeous!! You picked a great one. I'm still waiting for my strands. UPS lost my package from PP.:( I'm hoping they can find it.

I got the 100 inch rope and the blue akoya earrings. They are both gorgeous. I'm very happy with both of my purchases. The rope has a moderate amount of blemishes on the pearls, but they are so lustrous you can't see them. The shape of the pearls look very round too. The blue akoya earrings...

Imanit, Yes, the three strands match very well. That's why I decided to keep all three. I was originally going to keep just two (trying to save some money), but my pearl greed got the best of me.:D

I love everyone's strands! They are all so beautiful! Imanit, I was checking this thread every couple of hours, hoping to see your strands. All your strands are gorgeous! Here's a picture of my three 9-9.5mm strands. They are a lighter silvery blue. I love the color as it complements my...

Raj, Your strand is amazing!! After I saw your strand, I ordered three of the 9-9.5mm strands. Now I have to choose between them and the three 8-8.5mm I ordered earlier. From the PP pictures it looked like the larger sized strands weren't as lustrous as the smaller sized ones, but your...

Dear Callire, Thanks for the heads up! I have been waiting for these since I missed them in 2007. Now I just need to find matching earrings.:)

Hi Raison, Your pieces are beautiful!! I especially love the baby pink strand. It looks great on your skin. Your beading and knotting are improving so quickly. How long did it take you to learn to knot? Watching your progress and seeing all your pretty works make me want to bead too. Oh...

Wow!! Beautiful necklace!! I love the mix of colors, shapes and textures.

Ivona, Wow!! You're so creative. Thank you for your pictures. You have given me some great ideas for wearing my pearls.:)

Wow! I never thought I would say this, but the strand looks great on you. It's very masculine looking.
