Hi everyone, this will be my first golden south sea pearl "purchase" so I am looking for some more seasoned pearl-lovers to weigh in on which colors and overtones are considered to be better in terms of this pearl type. From what I have seen on this forum and online the 'best' colors are the...

What a fabulous SS strand! I am so happy to see other PGers buying these lovely metallic multicolor drops from PP. I snapped mine up last Christmas and Linda did as well shortly after :) welcome to the (tiny) party, haha

Thanks SS and everyone else, I can't wait to wear that on a warm breezy day (sweat and pearls, hmm..) I am interested in that pendant enhancer you used on your latest post. That is a very beautiful pendant that screams for an equally arresting "chain" and you did it great justice by using the...

Amanda, I don't know if "preppy" has negative connotations in general but for me it just means that it is a classic, well-put together casual look usually with a v-neck sweater layered over a pressed shirt with defined collar. This girl is an example of what I have when "prep" comes to mind -->...

I'm loving all these ideas for updating the classic white round pearl necklace you guys have posted so far! Keep it coming! Highly relevant since one of my only two strands I have right now is a round white, so I have to come up with many ways to wear them :) Personally, I was inspired by...

Thank you Amanda, I will learn how to use that for next time I photograph pearls :)

I so agree, maybe minus the kitty and add a pearl (or more) instead! That being said I certainly wouldn't object if that tiara was on MY head ;)

Maybe I just need to see more pearls, but I would probably form the same expectation of how your lovely strand of pearls look in real life based on either of those photos. I also think our brains are constantly trying to adjust for differences in context which makes it all the more difficult to...

Pearl Dreams, thank you for taking a shot at this :) I think that is actually a bit too warm/cherry compared to what I am looking at right now. The violet color is more blue-toned than red. Maybe I have to readjust my monitor's color display....

Thank you, Pearl Dreams, I think that at least in the conditions I was taking them under the pearls themselves looked quite close to how they photographed. Good point Pattye, now that I look at them I think my photos were a bit too cool toned compared to reality; the white balance was...

Vendor and Buyer Comparison Shots Vendor and Buyer Comparison Shots Hi everyone, I wasn't sure if this should actually be in the Show us your Tahitians thread, or here, but for the sake of continuity I decided to post here first. Let me know if there's a preference for them to be there too...

BAS, could I get the link too? I want to see! Thank you!

Wow Pattye, these are fabulous! So happy to finally see them. I especially like the mixed color bracelet- the colors will go well with any outfit and make it more unique! The colors especially on that upper middle pearl in the wrist shot (and I spy a belly button on its neighbor, lol)! It is...

Seconding what everyone else is saying about Pearl Paradise. They are solid vendors with quality products at great prices and a reasonable return policy which comes in handy if you decide to upgrade on the size. I have a pair of white Freshadama (their top grade freshwater pearls) studs 7.5-8mm...

Thank you, how fabulous! I didn't realize it was so large!

Wow I am assuming that is natural color which is what makes it amazing? Where can I find the link to the original thread? I would like to see this beauty before it was set. :)

Thanks everyone for the ever-kind comments, I have been wearing this pendant daily. I'm absolutely obsessed with fashion and style...once I get more time I want to take some nice photographs like Seventh Sphinx! I am in love with her website. I just need to get my photo-inclined husband on...

Thanks everyone for the kind words :D Pattye, that is a great idea. For now I have it on a lower quality black cord, I couldn't wait to wear it around; it showcases the pearl well to me. I think I might want to experiment with twisting a leather cord together with a gold chain or some...

What a rainbow...looks fabulous! I wonder what the setting will turn out to be like?

It's here! It's here! I received my little Tahitian pendant today! It is absolutely lovely and I am very happy. The pearl looks vibrant with strong purple and green, I can also see some blue near the tip. It is very clean with excellent luster, and clearly packaged with care! I am so satisfied...
