If only I didn't sweat so much when doing housework.:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: Right now we are in our 3rd month of 100's plus. Fortunately I can still wear pearls where building are air conditioned. BTW I love watching old re-runs of I Love Lucy and the Dick Van Dike show...all those lovely...

And the longer strand is nice because it can be worn long, shortened with a pearl shortener, or worn double around the neck. Very nice vintage set. Let us know if you need help with how to clean and restring.

Those beautiful glossy freshwaters go so great with mauve, like your top. Mauve is one of my best colors, so I appreciate the freshwater color palette. Lovely pairing of strands/earrings/bracelet.

OOOOHHHH love those dark goldens. What incredible luster and color. Mine are much lighter...perhaps someday I can afford a darker strand like these. I know the price goes up with the darker colors. Thanks for sharing.

OK, you know me...always looking to see what's out there. I ran across this fabulous Tahitian Strand with a Tahitian/Diamond center piece and had to share this with all my pearly friends. It's a mere $24,700!

Drum roll please...here are photos of the first finished case with the leather covered shelf standards. They look so clean and professional. Now I don't mind looking at all those amazing rings and necklaces! With the rest of the wood cut, and all the shelf standards sitting in a bag in my...

This post isn't about pearls specifically, but IS part of my Pearling Story. As I mentioned in another thread, I am helping my local jeweler "redo" her display cases. She has had the original cases for 17 years, since the store opened. Display cases are so expensive so she had some built. They...

What beautiful luster on these pink/peachy pearls. I love the tiny cut stones between the matching pearls on the other strand. Looks like citron, jade, something else? Can you clarify? It is a beautiful mix.

What lovely colors in this mixed strand. Your secure Miki's are such a great earring staple! I love this type of earring and have several with and without diamonds. Thanks for sharing.

What a doll! So handsome. I am a choir director and have a 13 year-old young lady singing soprano. She wears the prettiest half paperclip chain, half 3mm pearl (fake) toggle clasp necklace. It looks so sweet on her. Perhaps this very young generation will take over the pearl world! And...I WANT...

Hello pearly friends. Hope your summer is going well. I'm still waiting on that circle diamond/gold clasp with the screw ends to be fixed at the jeweler. Sometimes I try to explain to him what I need and he, being Korean, isn't always clear on what I have in mind. We'll see how that goes...

Thank you for clarifying. Perhaps though, some people in this world may feel like they need to show how much they have or who they are through excess. You never know, there may be some people who think similarly about me when I wear 2-3 layered pearl necklaces and a diamond tennis bracelet. Live...

Forgive my ignorance...what is "naff"?

He loves it! That's all that matters.

Here is a photo of my hairdresser in his "halfsies" necklace. He loves it!

If this piece didn't have the "curve" in the big center diamond piece (clearly for a necklace) I'd consider buying it to make a stunning bracelet! Good thing it's curved, because I'd most likely never wear anything this fancy with my work clothing.:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Lovely pieces! The clasp would look amazing in front as well! CHECK THIS OUT!!! Had to share this EBay link with you...,definitely something from the "Princess Dianna" Era. Especially since it only measures 13"!!!!! https://www.ebay.com/itm/186007064640?hash=item2b4ee29040:g:kP0AAOSwk~1kwV0z

If you are wanting to know if the pearl is "real" or "genuine"...I would say consider the setting. Most sellers won't put a high dollar pearl (certainly not a perfect one) in a CZ/Gold Filled setting...but that depends on the seller. Many sellers are marketing pearls with less expensive settings...

The thing about pearls (or any jewelry for that matter) is that any unusual piece has to "speak to you." This is a lovely and unusual pendant with great color and such a unique and beautiful shape. Unless it is grossly overpriced or out of your budget, it is a win. You can usually tell if it is...

Beautiful chain with emeralds and pearls. That is a LOT of wire wrapping, but truly sets off the pendant/enhancer. Every time you show that I am in awe!
