    What is a good introduction to the wonderful world of pearls?

    Here you go! I''m horrible at taking photos bu it has lovely rose overtones. I'm just not sure if it's a good fit for my skin tone. What do you think?

    What is a good introduction to the wonderful world of pearls?

    So I decided to go for a loose blue akoya from PP. I just purchased it today and I can't wait to get it! I have also ordered some cheap button strands from Wen to practice stringing, just for the fun on it.

    my mom's pearl ring

    That ring is stunning. I'm getting a little Golem-y about it! Looks like it needs a gentle cleaning around the setting, but it is so beautiful!

    my mom's pearl ring

    I'm a pearl newbie, so I'm not confident enough to give you my opinion on what the pearl is (although I have an idea, I'm going to wait until someone more knowledgeable posts and see if I was right). However, I just want to say that I am IN LOVE with that setting. I would love to see more...

    What is a good introduction to the wonderful world of pearls?

    Yes, I love the lights and markets! Unfortunately I won't be there for the markets this year, but I'm still excited for some maroni and punsch. Yum yum yum!

    What is a good introduction to the wonderful world of pearls?

    I assume that I will go for freshwater as this is an introductory piece, so nothing too outrageous :). My parents got me a quaint demiparure, so I don't need to add anything to it, really. I think I'd go for something dressy, as I'm a pretty formal person when it comes to fashion anyway, and I...

    What is a good introduction to the wonderful world of pearls?

    So, I just found out the flight is going to cost ~$300 than expected and that brings my budget down to $200, maaaaaybe $250 if my sister ever pays me the money show owes me :mad:. I think I might go for a pendant or a small strand now as the price of a nice focal pearl plus gold for the band...

    What is a good introduction to the wonderful world of pearls?

    Sounds like a perfect excuse to buy a pair! I actually am a fiber artist and have made many pairs of felted house shoes. However, I don't sell them and only make them and everything else as gifts or for fun. And Katalin, Servus! Whereabouts are you from? I'm American, but I've lived in Wien...

    What is a good introduction to the wonderful world of pearls?

    Thanks for the tips, fellow pearl lovers! I will spend the day browsing! If you don't mind, I would like to post items I'm interested in for opinions as well.:) Also, Beatriz, your name stood out because your shop has been in my Etsy favorites since 2011. It was the first shop I favorited. I...

    What is a good introduction to the wonderful world of pearls?

    Oh, I definitely plan on buying something in the US as although I live primarily in Austria (hence the reason I have that listed here) I am actually in the US until January spending time with family and just having an extended vacation for a few months before the semester starts (also my sister...

    What is a good introduction to the wonderful world of pearls?

    I think I would like a ring, and my budget is definitely no more than $500. As for the color, I just don't know. There are so many pretty colors, and I do love white as well! Some day I would like to purchase a nice strand, but that's just not happening any time soon.

    What is a good introduction to the wonderful world of pearls?

    Let me start off by saying that although I have only just signed up today, I have been lurking in these forums for a while (and perusing other pearl-related websites!). I quit smoking a little bit ago (it will be two months on 10/5!) and I got accepted to the university I wanted and will be...
