Thank you! That's a fantastic idea. Do you know where I could have that done in LA? Will pearl vendors make these for you if you didn't purchase pearls from them? I tried to photograph them with flash. The color is exaggerated here.

Thanks so much for the kind words ladies! Mervione, I went over to PP and chose my strand. This strand was in the pile of 7-8. We measured throughout the strand and some were slightly under 8 or just a hair over 8. I'm thinking that even though some are a bit over 8, the fact that some are...

I wish the color would show more in the photos. It's really hard to see in these. One strand looks more pink, but it's really a warmer lavender.

I ventured into the wholesale area at the gem show today, and I scored 2 lavender strands. One is very unique, as it is coppery/gold/green/lavender. The vendor had more deep purple strands, but this was the only one like it--totally unique--I'm in love with it! The pearls average about 9.5mm...

Beautiful color!

Thank You! Yup, I got the 7-8mm. They are a hair over 8mm. Thanks for the sweet comments, ladies!

Thanks Blaire!:D

Oh Jerin--I already want a bigger strand!:) I want a strand of Tahitian baroques, so those will definitely be bigger-heh heh. I'd also love a strand of lavender freshwaters. Could definitely do a larger size there!

Thank you!! I'm so pleased with these.:)

Did not know that.haHA Faux or no, the look is fantastic.

Sheath dresses and pearls? What's not to like?? I love Michelle Obama's purple sheath--and the pearls! (gimme a break NYT:rolleyes:)

A couple of months ago I got a 6-7mm Freshadama strand. I subsequently decided the pearls were a little small for me. (I'm 5'9") So I returned them for a size up. I adore them! (Thanks to Mia at PP:)) They are right at 8mm (16 inch strand) which is a great size for me, but I'm afraid the...

Those are gorgeous pearls--really exquisite!

Oh so lovely! I can't wait to see a neck shot!

Wow! Stunning!

Thank you for the birthday wishes! I love your profile photo!

ooo a conch pearl in that ring would be spectacular and rare indeed! I keep imagining different types of pearls in that setting, and I can't make up my mind. It's not something I'd be able to do soon anyway, so, plenty of time to ruminate! I can't wait to see your friend's ring. You...

Oh, what a lovely pearl! I love the idea of a detachable pendant.

Hi Jerin, Valeria orginally posted it. Here is a link to the site. Link to original page It's a Faberge circa 1910. I'd like to have a similar ring made. I adore it!

*sigh* This is my dream pearl ring. I'd love to recreate this!
