Kalmen, I hope that you don't mind that I basically copied your outfit today, but I hadn't worn this strand in probably a year and your outfit from yesterday gave me inspiration to break it out again. Mine is nowhere as beautiful as yours--they're just dyed black freshwaters from a jewelry...

I was a bit of a nerd, and was just a young kid when dialup internet became a thing. When kids were playing with toys, I was on the internet researching things I was interested in. I've always loved gemstones, so I did a research project on birthstones when I was in grade 5 or 6 and pearls were...

Marianne, I know--I think you misunderstood my post. I sent the inquiry early Friday morning, and not seconds before I posted. I'm only saying I hope to receive a response soon after the week begins, I'm in no way expecting a business to responding to my email during the long weekend. I have...

I'm sure as well. I just sent them another inquiry about something else, I hope to receive a response shortly after the week begins.

Lovely pairing!! I was wondering how I could wear my black dyed freshwater rope, and I happen to have a top that colour. Thanks for the inspiration!

That might be the case, but it would have still been nice to receive a response (with or without photos if they were already sold out)! I don't recall the freshadamas being part of the sale. I live in Canada so sending things back wouldn't be easy. I need to make sure I will like them before...

This strand is amazing! It almost has a light golden lit from within look in some of your photos!

How did I miss this thread? I enjoyed scrolling through the thread and seeing everyone's purchases! I was a bit late to the PP sale...found out about it on my first visit to this forum (must have been the 28th or 29th), checked it out and wanted to buy a pair of South Sea pearl earrings from...

Pearls have been out since our wedding in 2012 :D. They are now in my home safe which is basically a locked tethered briefcase, not the heavy duty kind. Thanks for the tip!

Thanks everyone for your comments and welcomes!

Thanks! I agree, I love them regardless of what they are as they're beautiful..I was curious, that's all :D

Thanks Pearl Dreams...the photo does look distorted. The pearls are much rounder in real life. They are very similar to the Akoya strand you all helped me identify, but look less lustrous than that strand when placed next to it. I don't remember the exact price he told me (and I doubt he kept...

I know they are all genuine, they were purchased from a jewelry store based online in Hong Kong (I think they also have a physical location) and I've done the tooth test. All are 14k gold setting except the ring which is sterling. These were a gift from my husband about 8? 7? Years ago... They...

First, thanks to everyone for identifying my mother's pearls. :) I went through my small collection and while I know which pieces are freshwater, I'm not sure of these ones...could in bother you all to help again?

Oh, I'm glad these are Akoyas! I don't see any other marks on the clasp besides the 585 for gold purity. Thanks for your reply!

Hello everyone :) This is only my 3rd post, but I've been a pearl lover since I was young. I did a project on birthstones when I was in grade 6 (I'm almost 30 now), and pearls were always my favourite--and they happen to be my birthstone too. My mom had this beautiful pearl strand that is...

Thanks everyone! I'm already planning my second purchase (not necessarily with KongsPearl)...I'm eyeing those SSP studs on PearlsParadise...I don't have any South Sea Pearls yet!

Hi everyone! I'm new here, and just discovered this site yesterday. I was researching Edison/metallic pearls and stumbled onto this thread and was delighted to see that others have ordered from KongsPearl on Etsy and had positive experiences. I ordered an Edison pearl lot a few weeks ago and...
