They look great on you! Fab luster.

I'm loving everyone's pearls. Have been constantly tempted by Kongspearl n have to keep reminding myself that I look crappy in pastels. But I love seeing all your pearl pics so pls keep them coming.

I used to think that white fwp are creamy compared to WSSP, until recently when I found this fwp strand that looks even whiter than my WSSP strand. From inside to outside: PP baroque Edisons, Eiko ssp, new fwp strand, gem grade fwp It's really rare though. I literally went through hundreds...

I'll share some of the show pics, n some thoughts/tips for first time visitors when I've sorted the pics n my thoughts. Hope you enjoyed the pics so far!

Pareltje, no idea where they are from actually, I mean country of origin. I've never been bothered about the source of pearls. So long as they are gorgeous, with beautiful luster and/or colors, I'm happy. ----- And I got some settings too. 18k wg n diamonds for most of them except the clasps...

Oh ya, that's the PP pearl cloth that I'm using as background cos otherwise the pearls roll around too much. You can even see the darker area where PP has printed its name. Circled Baroque peacock rope, 10-12mm, 90 cm Circles baroque strand, 10-12mm Group photos (ignore the slight peacock...

A pair of 11mm t drops n a pair of buttonish green-blue for studs, 12 mm Along with the rest Not like I need any more earrings but they were a good price n I'm a sucker for nice drops

A bluish ssp baroque that caught my eye cos it looked purplish at the bottom. 17.1 x 19.9mm

Thanks Pareltje, hanadama n msc. More to come. :) Greenish GSSP, 12.6 mm With some of my deep goldens so you can see how it compares to usual GSSP colors. Really quite unusual.

Ultra peacocks are up next. My new 12mm pair along with a less peacock pair for comparison. The vendor who sold the new pair described it as 'perfect peacock, very very rare'. Again, I tried to resist but succumbed again. (Extends time in naughty corner) 12.6mm drop with fab colors

Finally had to chance to see my new loots in natural light. Before I start, here's my set up... which consists of my balcony table and a cloudy day. I've even stopped bothering with any sort of background cos who has the time to set up a nice background when any time a toddler could run over...

Ok, I've been super busy (it is a work trip after all) and still have not seen my new pearls under natural lighting (ridiculous, I know!). But thought to share a sneak peek of one of my finds in HK. Unenhanced pics I just took a few min ago using iphone under ORANGE/warm lighting. Usually...

Hey, not trying to make you guys wait but it's been 2 exhausting days at the show and I'll be having early and packed work days for the next three days and it's close to midnight here so just a quick FYI that I will be back to update re: the HK show when I've some time. Needless to say it's...

Am in Hong Kong n queuing to go to the jewellery fair now. Oh happy day...

Hello YC! Yup the strand should be 3-11 mm if they are the same size as the others that I saw.

I asked before and they said their main business is wholesale. They typically sell to consumers like me during jewellery shows in Hong Kong, Tokyo, Singapore and Taiwan. True, the background, lighting n camera plays a part for sure. And I'll be very honest, I do try to capture them at their...

Thank you all. :) Just measured and it's a bit longer than 38.5 inches. Earrings from PP today: Thinking of changing the wire cos it's not comfy but the earrings are beautiful.

Too big for me but I can imagine it working for others.

Hi JP, I looked for such settings for my mismatched earrings but didn't find anything I like so I went the custom route. Recall that etsy had some settings and just looked them up...

It's lovely! Enjoy n wear in good health!
