Thanks, I can't wait to see your shots! PP sure did tease us...the new Edisons (purples and burgundy) up are amazing. It is a bit overwhelming the pearl lust that is!

Just one word "Wow"! okay maybe a few more, you look great in those pearls they really pop!

Quick deviation from topic. I purchased a little Vietnamese Pearl with Minty green overtones from our Wendy (Pearlescence) and Sheri made it into a lapel Octo...now Im sort of obsessed with the minty color in Vietnamese Akoyas. Now back the thread...I am so glad others are generously posting...

I want to see those Lavender pearls posted most recently...I bet they sold out in minutes. I've been so busy not had a chance to follow much of PP posting :( I'll be satisfied with being envious of others.

PPS: Thank You for enjoying. I don't expect comments, I enjoy the hunt and sharing them and post hoping you guys do too. I'm glad to have a place to share some of these pics, and hopefully some of them are new to others, or if it sparks interest in the photographers or designer's work, even...

I just showed the picture to a friend, she said I don't know about hair adornment, but I'd buy a smaller pair as earrings. Oh well LoL

I came across this (I think quite lovely) Diamond and South Sea Keshi Pearl hair ornament: Wisteria Hair Corsage by Tasaki for the Tiara minded: Abstract Star Tiara (though it is less Tiara and more hairband) and finally hair combs: Petals Hair Corsage

You know how you would look at old family photos as a kid with your grandparents and some of those photos stayed stuck in your mind? I've always told my grandmother there were certain pictures I wanted if and when she decided to give up the albums. There is another bit of a family tradition...

This comment alone makes the hunting and sharing worthwhile, thank you for the appreciation! Actually thanks to everyone commenting positively really. I'm just happy this thread is supported with such enthusiasm, I love the pictures and hunting for images, though initially it was a personal...

I'm glad you got one of them, you (if I remember correctly from past posts) have been fanning over them for a long time too! Personal favor please post pics as soon as you get them I wonder what the IRL colors will look like.

The Vietnamese Akoyas.....drool worthy colors. So many design ideas, I missed them Sigh.

I am quite pleased everyone is enjoying the thread. Part of the inspiration for me in the image search, I've had several friends come to me with their "Family" pearls only to have to tell them they are faux pearls. The stories are interesting. In one case a great-grandmother sold her wedding...
