Thanks Caitlin. Sounds like it was bad news though the article does end on a happy note.

Good to get some news about Justin's operation. I feel a little out it asking this, but does anyone know how they fared with the recent cyclone?

Yep John, you have to get by to see the pearl phenomenon known as Sarah Canizzaro. Make sure your laughing muscles are in fine shape! Sarah, that's great that you got some hang time with Mom. Sounded like too much fun.

What a great space! Can't wait to see it in person. I can feel the good vibrations emanating from it a whole ocean away! Yay Sarah!

Thanks Sven, will check it out right now. :)

I wish I was as funny as Mikey and as smart as Caitlin.

Mikey what you said!

Wendy, I'm workin' on it! Shipping is a huge anchor for now but the solution is on the horizon. Also, I hope that everything we do does not have to bend to the god of Cheaper. I have heard it said that you do not eliminate the middle man/woman, you just do their job. Wholesaling and farming...

Hi crew, Here's my latest from JCK. As was said in a thread a little while back, it's always dicey predicting the future. Sure can be fun though! Here's the link: http://tinyurl.com/y87aape

Excellent.

That sounds like a lot of fun. Wish I could come. Enjoy!

Actually, I'm waiting to be shown how. :D

Haha, thanks Marianne. I'm learning when to say when though! :p

In the name of rare gorgeousness I thought I'd bring this thread back to life for anyone who might not have seen it. Go Douglas, Enrique and Manuel!

Nerida and Sheri those are some weak retorts. Can you not do better being the clever sorts?

Thanks Blaire! Donna, I wish I knew the answer to that one. We have observed color to improve or worsen on live oyster shells in as little as two weeks. Pearl color should logically follow what the shell does as it's the same material but if there is one thing I can say with certitude in...

Sheri, you've provoked a lyrical parlay. Katkashmir your pearls do look great I must say. (Truth is poetry's not on my list of skills.) It's fun though, even gives me the chills Better call it quits now before I scare y'all away! OK, one more (Sheri this is your fault) There once were some...

Thanks Olga and Sven. I'm hoping to take some more photos next week. There are more pearls arriving from the farm today that we'll clean and sort next week. Can't wait!

Hi everyone, Sven was kind to point out in another thread that I have an interview that was recently posted regarding Kamoka's endeavors to do things as "fairly" as possible in www.fairjewelry.org. I had the address wrong in my second to last post. The profile pic is a silly one from my...

I wasn't sure whether to post it here or elsewhere but we have been harvesting these last days post-Oli and are ecstatic to report that the colors are excellent. In '93 and '98 when we had other meteorological events that displaced a huge amount of lagoon water we also had spikes in pearl...
