Red is BACK and we are delighted! Memories ... Jacques and Ruckus :) Your GSS are indeed one among millions; I especially love the setting on the earrings ... dreamy BWeaves, that Mint Linen is the perfect backdrop for so many pearls; classic white summer looks, and now insanely Blue ... WOW!

Red, what a pleasure to see your feather pearls; they are gorgeous, as is your new Kasumi pendant! Douglas, Please take great care, and feel better soon!

This is a wonderful thread! I've been thinking about it for days :) What a treat to see everyone's thoughts and choices, or inability to choose ... so far I'm in with the latter ... But categories of favorites for me would definitely include Gold South Sea and especially my original Harvest...

I also recommend contacting Pacific Pearls or sister company Kojima Pearls, as Jeg says; they have many options including older/vintage stock. It might help if you find some internet photos of what you have in mind to help the search. Good luck :)

Can I just say .... you ladies are fabulous sharing so many tips and techniques ... BWeaves, Pattye, Pearl Dreams and others ... we SEE you and so appreciate everything you do :)

Jeg's new ring is just glorious!

BWeaves ... so happy to see the Beachy rope :) I sat with that in front of me for an hour of Pearl Bingo, trying to decide before putting it back; so glad it got a good home where I get to see it now and then! That mabe set would be really pretty as a pendant and ring.

That Stuffed Shell necklace is so beautiful 2thdktr; LOVE it with your sapphire companion pieces .... well done!!!

I KNEW that Guardian had a story ... wonderful!

Tringio was the first name I saw on Facebook. Must be a good investment as their "office" is a bank ....... ugh.

Hi Pomelo and welcome! Another option, if you LOVE your strand, but are bothered by those 3 pearls ... wear the strand for a while. If the 3 still bother you, contact any of the vendors mentioned here and there, and replace just those 3 pearls; it can make a world of difference.

That clasp would be very tempting ... :)

Ooh Berna! SO glad you didn't return that "Hisano's Favorite" pearl; what an exotic and fabulous 3 pearl set you have now ... gorgeous!

Beautiful golden South Seas strand! And they have their own guardian creature :) ? which I like as much as the pearls ...

Looks like SS to me too. The only thing that matters is if YOU love them! The luster is very pretty :) My own white South Sea pearls are very circled and I love them. Have fun deciding!

Pistachio!!! I’ll be on an airplane home during that show. Walter thinks that might be a good thing … We are in Sausalito, ready for pearl adventures ❣️

Wow, everyone looks fabulous! Jeg … Paris, pearls, keshi ❣️ BWeaves thrilled you got the Miki earrings so quickly; the pearls are gorgeous 💕. We are jetlagged, disheveled and looking over Monterey Bay, after flying across the US yesterday :) Really looking forward to PBTB in a few days :)

There's been a company floating around on Facebook ads ... they've used at least 4 different company names now, but clearly the same company/group, right down to some of the "happy customer" comments. Genuine "Akoya" pearl strands, certified by GIA, straight from pearl farmers in Japan, grown in...

This is just ... Fabulous! BWeaves, please thank Dr. Greg (who we were lucky enough to meet at a Ruckus) for calling this to our attention :)

Berna, yes, the keychains were handed out in 2018 I think? And maybe again. IF I remember right, they were vintage, made for/by Fuji Voll, originally for the Olympics in Japan; one of ours was marked! Feel free to correct me if I'm remembering wrong. I hung mine on our Christmas tree and feel...
